This woman, who is often called Kim, said that she had not slept for 30 years. However, he admitted that his health was not affected at all. He is always quick to show that his body is fresh again even though he doesn't sleep.
Kim admitted that he had often stayed up late since he was little. Initially, he often didn't sleep well because he often read late at night. Apart from that, his work as a seamstress required him to often stay up late.
"Every night like that, I sit in front of the sewing machine and don't dare sleep because I'm afraid I won't be able to fulfill the order," said Kim as quoted by odditycentral on Saturday (3/8).
However, because of this habit, one day Kim Lants felt he didn't need to sleep at all. Therefore, he decided to stay awake all day.
"The first few times I worked through the night, I encountered a lot of difficulties. Not only did I fall asleep constantly and made a lot of mistakes while sewing, but I constantly felt tired and dizzy, and I even had several accidents," said Kim
"However, after being awake for months, then years, my eyes and body started to get used to the lack of sleep. From then on, I couldn't sleep even if I wanted to," he continued.

The insomnia that Kim has been experiencing for decades has not been medically proven. However, Kim dared to claim this because he knew that many people often saw him working all night. He admitted that every day Kim was always in her sewing shop with the lights on.
"At first, few people noticed my lack of sleep," says Kim.
"Then, many of them started to notice that I was always working at my stall. Seeing that the rumors were true, they spread them, and soon, I became famous for my ability to stay awake constantly." he continued.
