Korea culture of horror experience
You know, in Korea, we usually get into horror experiences during the summer. It’s not like Halloween with a fixed date, but once summer hits, there’s a surge in horror movies, webtoons, and spooky activities 🤩
(Maybe because seeing ghosts makes you feel a chill for a moment, so when summer arrives, we seek out scary stuff.🥶)
Among them, the annual horror experience at Korean folk villages is super popular even among us Koreans. Every summer, celebrities even join in on the fun through TV shows, dressing up as ghosts and spooking participants themselves.
