Gwisin
Gwisin ((朝鮮語:귀신)) are Korean ghosts who are similar to a ''Yogoe'' ((朝鮮語:요괴)); they are people who have died, not monsters or creatures such as Dokkaebi. They can be found in many places, but most commonly in abandoned buildings, houses, cemeteries, forests, etc. When a person dies without completing something that they must do (e.g. revenge or staying longer with their family), their spirit remains on earth to complete the task before going on to the underworld.〔 However, very strong Gwisin do not go to the underground world if they want to remain on earth, and over time these gain strength.
== Legends ==
There are a lot of legends about Gwisin. Because they are a common form of ghost, children often make them up to scare others or parents tell stories to their children to teach them a lesson.
Most legends are about revenge,〔 revenge for their families or about men who cheated on their wives, or murdered the victim.
Appearances of Gwisin occur in high schools, because schools in Korea can have eerie atmospheres and look very abandoned at night time. Students also often have to stay very late into the night to study, so their eyes play tricks on them and they think they have seen a ghost. They often have long, narrow, echoing corridors that are very dark at night. All the corridors are similar and there are many floors, which makes it scarier. The doors are wooden slide doors and in classrooms there are separate desks that are in line with other desks. In ghost stories, schools are the perfect place for ghosts to appear.
