This is just filled with your usual brilliant turns of phrase, I really enjoyed the difference in tone in this one, giving a more offhand, casual feel to the telling which works so well with the story itself. Having him drunk for the encounter with the body, follow by the vivid descriptions, not too detailed, just enough to make the point perfectly. I always love some realistic horror/life experience in a character. I particularly loved the smoking aspect, the slow suicide and how it makes him think about life. The progression he goes through at the church, the levels of being taken more seriously, only to be turned away. The ghost itself, choosing to haunt him, and then the note, and the ending. Perfectly encapsulating a sense of random meaningless in life, that tied up so well in him returning to him smoking and soju. A horror story, although fictional, of true horror.
