Lore
Mul Gwishin, the water ghost, is a chilling spirit in Korean folklore born from the souls of drowning victims, bound to bodies of water where they lurk to pull unsuspecting people under for companionship in their eternal loneliness. Appearing as wet, dripping figures with a cold, eerie presence, they lure victims with deceptive calls or illusions, embodying the dangers of water and the tragedy of isolated deaths. These ghosts serve as cautionary figures in stories, warning against venturing near rivers or lakes alone, and highlight themes of isolation and the need for proper burial rites to prevent such vengeful hauntings.
