THE SPLIT- NOSED WOMAN

A beautiful woman lived in Korea years ago. She was blessed with a very meticulous, loving but not so rich husband who trusted her a lot, call him a perfect life partner! Having flawless skin, expressive eyes, sensuous lips and shiny auburn hair made her self-obsessed. She was born in a middle-class family and desperately wished she were wealthy. Her parents made her marry a middle-class family guy who was a clerk. Katie was so convinced she’s meant to be rich that she detests her real life and spends all day dreaming and despairing about the fabulous life she’s not having. She envisions a rich young man who will fulfill all her dreams and let her flaunt her beauty to the world.

One day, she goes out in the evening for a nature walk. She meets a man who is rich and handsome, extremely impressed by her appearance, reaches to be friends with her. Days pass by and this lady Katie without even giving a second thought and out of greediness proposes the young man to be her new valentine and continues to be in a secret relationship.

The day came when her poor husband was deployed and came home early and saw her with the other fellow. In a fit of rage, that his wife whom he trusted, loved and cared about was cheating on him, he takes a scissor lying on the table next to him and slashes across her face tearing her nasal septum, splitting the nose into half. As doing so he screamed “Who will think you are beautiful now?” She succumbs to it and dies a painful death.

She later returned as a vengeful spirit wearing a surgical mask. In a dark evening of just another day for a young wealthy man returning from work she appears in front of him and asks “Am I beautiful?” The man said “No” and she cut him into two halves.
Similarly, she went and haunted every young fellow she came across. If the man says “Yes, you are beautiful!” She takes her surgical mask, revealing her splitted nose and asks “How about now”? If the man changed his answer to “No” she did the same what she did at first or if he says “Yes”, she splits his nose just like hers.

Running away from her did not work, as she simply reappeared in front of the victim. The only way to escape from her hands was to give her an ambiguous answer such as “You are average.” or “So-so” which left her confused and gave the victim enough time to escape.
