Revenant
악귀Checked and re-read
Kim Eun Hee wrote it, Kim Tae Ri carries it, and it is Korean folk horror played completely straight: no romance, no comic relief, just five cursed objects and a poor family's inheritance. Kim Tae Ri switching between two people inside one body is the performance of the year. The world building is thin where it needed to be exact, and the middle four hours repeat a shape you have already understood, which is why the story is the weakest part of it despite the pedigree. Watch it for the atmosphere and the acting, not the mythology.
A woman possessed by an evil spirit and a man who can see evil spirits uncover the secrets of mysterious deaths surrounding five spirits.
Slow start Episode 5, when the possession stops being a monster of the week and starts being the story of one family's debt.
