Gisaeng House Ghost Story

This episode is one of the more "horror-y" offerings thus far. A mysterious man decides to investigate the strange happenings at a gisaeng house. It seems that one girl has gone missing, another has started acting very erratically, and yet another suddenly cannot speak. What happened to cause all this? And who is the mystery man? (And that synopsis up in the episode description is actually a little spoilery! It should probably be changed. Doesn't give everything away though, and is still fun to watch.)

This episode is a pretty satisfying mystery, and is written pretty well. It's entertaining throughout and paced well. It's also got some entertaining "classic" horror moments if you like that kind of thing (I do). Not too scary, really, but fun. This is another episode directed by Kim Jung MIn of The Princess's Man fame (as is episode 3), and stars Yoon Joo Hee, who I recognized from a number of dramas such as the God's Quiz series (although I didn't recognize her at first with the way she looks here...).

Definitely a solid episode, and fun to watch. I rank it tied for third place at this point in my watch of the 2008 season (rank, top to bottom: ep 1, 3, 4/6, 5, then 2 definitely last).
