Description
This walk moves through Seoul's older neighborhoods and quieter streets, tracing ghost stories, urban legends, and real events that shaped the city's darker history.
Your host blends Korean ghostlore and cultural beliefs about death and spirits with true accounts of violence and political upheaval most visitors never hear about. Depending on the route, stops may include sites tied to ghost sightings, unsolved cases, and local legends passed down for generations.
Routes typically run through Jongno, Gwanghwamun, or Seodaemun, weaving through parks, historic streets, and palace-adjacent alleys. The extended option adds more stops and deeper stories for those who want the full picture.
Some content touches on violence and mature themes. Not recommended for young children.
