Most visitors imagine a shaman as one thing, a dramatic ritual, a spirit possession, an ancient ceremony. But Korean shamanism is far more layered than that. There are those who are called by spirits, those who inherit the role through family, and those who spend years in deep study mastering the ancient system of reading fate itself. Today, you will meet the third kind. Before your reading, we begin with context. Most visitors arrive at a shamanic experience with assumptions — and leave with more questions than answers. This experience is designed differently. Your local guide will walk you through a 30-minute introduction that covers: 1. Who Korean shamans are — and why they still exist in modern Korean society 2. The three types of Shamans 3. What Saju is — the Eight Characters, the Five Elements, and how this thousand-year-old system reads the patterns in your birth data 4. How to prepare: what questions to bring, and what to expect from your session, and your birth date and time
