"dad?" Kim Tae-ri saw Jin Seon-gyu who became a guest... 'Ghost' creepy ending
The Friday-Saturday SBS drama 'Ghost' (script Kim Eun-hee, director Lee Jung-lim) shocked viewers with unexpected developments. Tae-ri Kim met the ghost of her deceased father, Seon-gyu Jin. Why did Jin Seon-gyu, the one who left an ominous object for her daughter and made it stick to the evil spirits, appeared in front of Kim Tae-ri?
The 4th episode of 'Ghost', which aired on the 1st, showed 10.8% of households in the metropolitan area and 10% of households nationwide (hereinafter, based on Nielsen Korea). In addition, it rose to a maximum of 12.3% at the moment, firmly maintaining the first place in the same time zone and Saturday mini series. The 2049 audience rating, a key indicator of channel competitiveness and topicality, recorded 4.5%, and it topped all programs broadcast on Saturday.
On this day, the broadcast opened with the story of Hae-hae (Oh Jeong-se), who finally faced the evil spirit he had been chasing for a long time. Hae-sang said, “I was a kid, but I grew up a lot. Who killed your mother?” When he mentioned the 'Baessi Daenggi' that he gave to a little girl with a wish for health and safety, the smile disappeared from the devil's mouth. Hae-sang conveyed her firm determination to find out the owner of the daenggi her mother had before she died and that Koo Gu-mo (Jin Seon-gyu) had left for San-yeong (Kim Tae-ri), and said, "I will find out your name." At that time, Sanyeong, who came back to her senses, muttered the numbers '21' and '176'. It was a new clue from the demon.
San-young and Hae-hae received a call from Lee's grandfather (Moon Chang-gil) and met Tae-young (Lee Ha-eun), who calmed down the trauma. Taeyoung clearly remembered Kangmo, who had visited his grandfather at the nursing home about a year ago. Gangmo showed the grandfather an old newspaper article titled “Two weeks after the disappearance of the little girl” and asked who the “girl” was. My grandfather saw the article and said he remembered the name 'Lee Mok-dan'. Mr. Lee's grandfather, who was listening to the story by his side, also added a memory that the village was in trouble due to the disappearance of a certain girl in Jangjin-ri. The clues that have come out so far, Deokdal Lee Namu and Baessi Daenggi, all point to a girl.
San-yeong and Hae-hae searched for local newspaper articles near Jangjin-ri between May and September 1958 based on the memories of Mr. Lee's grandfather and Tae-young in the archives of the National Library of Korea. As a result, Sanyeong found an article titled “The Heartless Shaman Who Made Yeommae.” Yeommae is an act of witchcraft in which a child is starved to death to create a ghost. Hearing Hae-hae's explanation that a ghost who died in childhood is called a 'Princess Ghost', Sanyeong remembered the Prince's Ghost that he had read in Gangmo's only published book. So, while taking out the book again, I found that the pages of the book describing the crown prince were 'page 21' and 'page 176'. It was the moment when the mystery of the number spilled by the demon was solved. On the page, there was also an explanation that the representative ritual to chase such ghosts was 'Baekchagol Weasel Game'.
At the village hall of Baekchagol, where Sanyeong and Haeyang headed, the villagers, mostly elderly, were busy preparing for the 'dangje'. Dangje is a long-standing tradition of the village to prevent 'gaegwi' who died on the street from attaching themselves to people. However, an ominous aura fell on the face of the sea that looked around. Apparently, the head of the village (Lee Yong-seok) held a party every year, but it was because there were too many guests. It was also strange that the elderly died or collapsed in pain as if paying a tribute. In order to drive away the guest ghosts, we looked for a 'heather swallow doll', which is a powerful biting guest, but this morning, the doll that the head of the village was said to have spent a lot of time on was gone.
Hae-sang, who went to visit Mr. Park's grandmother (Lee Yong-i), who cleaned the house that morning, saw a ghost sitting in front of the table. Even with the warning of the sea, “Be careful,” the grandmother did not move, and rice, soup, and spoons were placed on the table as if prepared by a ghost. Hae-hae noticed that the ghost could be seen even in her grandmother's eyes. Park's grandmother confided that the ghost was "a daughter who ran away from home because she hated the countryside and committed suicide" and said calmly, "Since we burned the weasel doll, no one will harm her." It was a wrong choice made by the grandmother's earnest desire to keep her daughter by her side, even if it was a ghost, when her daughter, whom she had never forgotten for a day, returned home.
In the meantime, guests flocked to the village. Sanyeong, who was looking around the village, saw numerous guest ghosts through the mirror and began to run away. Then San-yeong, who tripped and fell, looked up and saw someone with white hair reflected in the window of a store that seemed to have been out of business for a long time. Approaching a strange feeling, Sanyoung wiped the dusty glass. The someone standing beyond the door was my father Kangmo. Sanyoung called “Dad?” Again, the shock ending hit the home theater.
