The Ghost Taxi Passenger
One of South Korea’s most unsettling modern legends involves taxi drivers and phantom passengers. The story goes that a taxi driver picks up a quiet customer late at night—often in a remote area or near a hospital. The passenger gives a vague or faraway address, and the ride is mostly silent. When the driver reaches the destination and turns around to collect the fare, the seat is empty. The passenger has vanished without a trace.
In many versions, the driver later discovers the passenger was someone who had died recently—often a car accident victim or a suicide case. The address they gave turns out to be their home, or in darker versions, a cemetery. The driver, shocked and confused, might later experience strange events—hearing whispers in his rearview mirror, or having the taxi’s meter activate by itself during future trips.
These tales became so widespread that many Korean taxi drivers share similar personal stories, and some even keep extra offerings—like rice cakes or coins—in their cars to appease wandering spirits. After the Sewol Ferry tragedy in 2014, several drivers in the affected towns reported being hailed by ghostly passengers who disappeared before paying the fare. These reports fueled national mourning and led to media coverage blending grief with folklore.
The Ghost Taxi Passenger legend reflects not only Korea’s strong cultural ties to the spirit world but also its rapidly urbanizing society, where anonymity and night travel are increasingly common. The story plays on themes of guilt, loneliness, and the desire for closure—especially for those who died unexpectedly.
To this day, some drivers still claim that if you drive late enough, especially near cemeteries or hospitals, you might get a passenger who doesn’t quite belong in this world—and won’t be leaving any payment behind.
The Tunnel of the Dead
South Korea’s mountainous terrain is filled with dark, narrow tunnels—perfect breeding grounds for eerie legends. Among them, the “Tunnel of the Dead” (Jugeunui Tonnel, 죽은의 터널) is one of the most haunting. While there are multiple real-life tunnels said to be cursed, the legend is typically centered on a specific road tunnel outside of Seoul that’s notorious for fatal accidents and strange occurrences.
Drivers report feeling an overwhelming sense of dread when approaching this tunnel. Many say that their radio suddenly emits static, the temperature drops, or their headlights dim without reason. Some claim to see a woman in white standing by the tunnel entrance—or worse, suddenly appearing in the back seat through the rearview mirror. In some cases, she vanishes after the vehicle exits the tunnel. Other drivers describe hearing whispers, crying, or loud thumps on their car roof, especially when driving alone at night.
According to the legend, the tunnel was built over a site where many people died—either during wartime or as the result of a mass accident, such as a collapsed bridge or landslide. The spirits of those who perished are said to remain trapped, unable to move on. Some stories even claim that construction workers warned the government about bad omens, but the warnings were ignored.
To this day, offerings of food, flowers, and incense can sometimes be found near these infamous tunnels, left by grieving families or cautious travelers hoping to appease the dead.
The Tunnel of the Dead remains one of South Korea’s most unnerving urban myths—a reminder that some paths should never have been paved, and that even in a modern country full of high-tech roads, the past sometimes refuses to stay buried.
