Product placement

Korean Folk Village (a.k.a. 민속촌) — it ACTS as the location where the ghost tour event is held and the ghost actors are employed to scare children into better behavior. Removing it would change the entire premise of the video.

Transcript

This is all over my IG and because I work with kids, I just think this is kind of fascinating. So this is Korean Folk Village. It's a history museum that's in open air and they do a lot of events and for Halloween they're doing ghost tour. And you would think that, oh, like kind of like a haunted house. No, this ghost like dressed up people are actually chasing kids around and making sure they're listening to their parents. Or like if you're thumb sucker, you're not going to suck your thumb anymore. You're not going to be a picky eater. So all the Korean parents are bringing their kids here to kind of scare them. This is funny, but this is also traumatizing.
