Part of a program that highlights Korean horror classics, this final entry in the Night Memories lineup spotlights Park Ki-hyeong’s 1998 feature Yeogo Goydam, known in English as Whispering Corridors. The installment marks the culmination of a curated run through Korea’s horror masterpieces. Whispering Corridors is noted for a jump shot in which the ghost dramatically appears in front of the viewer, a moment that still resonates in conversations about the genre.

The film’s casting of rookie actresses was a deliberate choice designed to blur the lines of who might be the ghost, a move frequently cited as a stroke of genius. Its enduring impact helped propel a series of sequels, anchoring Korean horror cinema as a major thread in the industry for more than two decades and earning its status as a classic.

Behind Whispering Corridors’ lasting reputation, the behind‑the‑scenes stories are often told through the experiences of its cast, including actress Choi Kang-hee. The legacy of this film continues to be discussed as part of Korea’s cinematic history and its influence on subsequent horror productions.
