No identification with actuall persons, companies,

and organizations is intended or should be inferred.

Finally, the 4th floor.

I'm freaking nervous!

What the hell! So scared.

That's scary...

Damn it! Don't play around!

You little chicken.

Isn't this it? 402?

It really exists.

This sh*t is heavy.

Hey, Hae-chan.

You said we wouldn't come.

But we're right in front of room 402.

You see? 402!

We're not chicken like you.

We're real men!

Now we'll unlock it and leave.

You thought we cannot make it.

But we made it!

We're real men, you sucker!

We're opening the door!

Hold this for me.

We're doing it for real!

But it doesn't go through.

Stop acting!

It's not opening. I don't know how...

Total wuss.

- What was that?

- What?

Wait.

Hello, everyone. You must've

seen this on Youtube.

The high schoolers who

went missing at Gonjiam.

So what should I do?

I checked whether the

clip was fabricated.

Ta-da!

Teenage boys went missing

on their horror experience.

That's real.

And the ghost picture

doesn't seem fake.

So!

Our next stop for Horror Times'

3rd horror experience squad is

one of three most

haunted houses in Korea

and one of 7 freakiest places on earth!

Namyoung Psychiatric Hospital.

Since it opened in May 1961, it was

the best mental hospital in Korea

but it closed in October 1979

after a mass suicide of patients

and the disappearance of its director.

The building still stands,

yet abandoned.

Gonjiam asylum, folks!

Footages!

No. 1026.

The 11th 5.16 citizens award

ceremony was held at the Blue House.

The grand prize goes to Park Young-ae

the director of Namyoung

Psychiatric Hospital

recognizing her achievement for

treating not only mental patients,

but also political prisoners

and brutal criminals.

There are numerous rumors

around Gonjiam asylum.

Some say it was built on the place

where the Japanese brutally murdered

and buried the Korean resistance

so that nobody could trace the bodies.

Or it was the national torturing facility

in the 60s and 70s disguised as asylum

or that the mass suicide was

actually murdered by the director

who then killed herself,

not went missing.

So there are countless reports

of ghost sightings

and hearings of wailing after

the closure of the asylum.

The biggest rumor among

all is about room 402,

the only locked space of the asylum.

They say whoever dares to open

that room is cursed to death.

So we are going to

the Gonjiam asylum,

on October 26th the day it

closed, to investigate the truth

about supernatural phenomena

and the ghosts many people witnessed.

Care to join?

I'm at the terrace of

a cafe at Gangnam.

Guess I'm the first one.

Let me wait for others to come.

- For Horror Times?

- Yes.

- Hello.

- Hi.

- Are you filming me?

- Yes.

Yes, my family is in the States

and I'm here with my dance crew.

- Wow.

- Awesome.

- What do you do?

- Studying nursing...

- Boys must like you!

- I'm at a women's univ.

Isn't he the one?

Here they are!

Hello everyone.

Hello.

- Nice to see you.

- Hello.

Let's do some introduction.

Sure!

These are the selected applicants:

Oh Ah-yeon, Park Ji-hyun, and...

- Charlotte!

- Charlotte Moon.

And from Horror Times,

Lee Seung-wook, Park Sung-hun.

- Hello.

- Hello.

Seung-wook will do MC

and Sung-hun will

operate the 1st camera.

And you know who I am?

Ha-joon, the captain of the squad.

- It's like a group date.

- Right.

- Didn't mean it...

- Just stop talking.

Seems like one is missing.

- As if you saw a ghost...

- Isn't he?

I guess so.

- Shall we call him?

- Here!

- Here!

- Come here!

Yes, please come here!

Here he comes!

Hello, you're here for Horror Times?

- Hello!

- Sorry, I was lost nearby.

Je-yoon will do editing

and graphic effects.

Ji-hyun, 2nd camera.

And one go pro camera per two.

Please memorize the floor

plan and the cue-sheet.

What are you doing?

It's for the f***-you-mentary.

- Cheers!

- Bottoms up!

- Nice to meet you!

- Cheers!

Where have you been to among

CNN's 7 freakiest places?

Sedlec Ossuary in Czech, the

Island of the Dolls in Mexico,

and Aokigahara Forest in Japan.

I've been to three places.

Everyone who's seen

the ghost at Gonjiam

heard some sound first.

- You mean a ping-pong ball?

- You're right.

People who saw the ghosts

there heard a ping-pong ball.

But why that specific sound?

Actually there is a ping pong table.

Broken in half.

Can't it be the echoed

sound of water drops?

But why did the director

kill all her patients?

There's no proof she killed them.

People say that as all

the patients died

and the director went missing.

Rumor also says she hung herself

at the hospital's bathroom.

Her neck apparently was

stretched a foot long.

Gross...

Are you scared?

Me?

No.

- You seem to be.

- No way!

Whose idea is it to air this live?

A car racing club uploaded

the clip of their wild speed racing

on their website a while ago.

It reached 200K views and

earned more than 100K for ads.

- 100K dollars?

- Yes.

Can you earn money

airing this kind of stuff?

Hell yes...

I guess you are a kind of student

who learns everything by the book.

Never breaks rules.

- She's cute.

- Yes, very cute but...

- learning everything by the book.

- Stop it.

Not by experiences...

How many views are you expecting?

- A million!

- A million?

I am aiming for that.
