An exhibition hall in Seoul’s Insa-dong neighbourhood houses a small shrine just large enough for one person, where colourful ribbons, bells, ancestral tablets, candles and a single cushion are carefully arranged.
When a visitor inputs their personal information into an ancestral-looking digital tablet and sits on the cushion, the soft voice of a middle-aged woman begins to speak.
“I am a being that transcends human knowledge,” she says. “I know truths beyond your understanding and can foresee the future. If you have any questions, ask me."
