There are a lot of ghosts in Korea, and just as many misconceptions about them. I wanted to talk about some of the most common ghosts and share which one’s my favorite. I also brought in a ghost expert (my son) to talk about some more obscure Korean ghosts.

Typically 명동 is recommended for its location, or 홍대 for its nightlife, and more.
