Exorcism Chronicles of the Taebaek Shaman

Author: KOXLO 호러관

Deep in a valley of Mount Taebaek, tunnel excavators tear through a five-colored taboo rope and a four-hundred-year-old stone cairn that sealed the vengeful spirit of a beheaded Joseon general. When possessed construction workers begin marching into a pitch-black abandoned mine shaft while miming their own decapitation, male shaman Cheon Mu-jin—armed with twin brass ritual bells and a sacred iron divining blade—ventures into the blood-soaked mountain alongside folklore researcher Han So-hee and veteran mountain guide Go Man-sik. As the headless general's spectral army rises from the freezing fog, Mu-jin steps barefoot onto razor-sharp fodder blades to invoke a wrathful lightning deity into his own flesh.
