Summary of "대추밭을 나오니 모든 사람들이 사라졌다 [구독자 사연 낭독] [괴담]"

Summary / Recap

This video is a compilation of subscriber-submitted Korean ghost stories, framed as a mix of “what felt like a nightmare” and “what may have been something worse than ghosts”—including two standout narratives.

1) The nightmare that became reality (Kim Su-a)

The narrator begins by explaining that their mother often claimed to have seen ghosts, but the narrator didn’t believe her and usually dismissed it as her being unwell.
One summer night, their mother falls asleep on the sofa and ends up facing toward the inner door.
In a terrifying sequence, the inner door slides open, and a black, shadow-like figure seems to “slither” in—more follow endlessly.
While her mother experiences sleep paralysis (unable to move), she can only watch as dark figures fill the house.
In the morning, she wakes up thinking it was just paralysis—until her father notices something alarming:
- He asks why the front door was left open, even though the inner door was closed.
The family installs a door sensor/security app afterward.
Later, the mother falls asleep again and hears a sound—then the sensor triggers:
- She assumes it might be the family cat, but the sensor keeps staying active far too long.
- She looks up and sees a face-to-face moment: the cat is there, yet the circumstances don’t match what should have happened.
The family wakes to an alarm and discovers:
- The inner front door is open, while the outer front door is firmly closed.
- The security app indicates the door was opened, yet no outside entry is recorded.
- The only logged action is that the door opened from the inside, and someone went out.
The narrator speculates whether it connects to the earlier nightmare—suggesting it may not be a regular ghost, but something that could operate with intent.

Highlight: Security logs + sensor evidence turning a “nightmare” into something that looks disturbingly real.

2) The “time travel” jujube orchard incident (Kim Ji-eun)

In 2007, a young man (post-military, working part-time) begins a job mapping areas using aerial photos and marking whether places are residential or chicken restaurants.
He’s assigned a region near a transmission tower, with permission to enter private areas.
While drawing the map, he suddenly realizes there are no people anywhere—not even shadows—despite the area being visibly affected/devastated in summer.
When he tries to leave, he follows what seems like a jujube-orchard path, but:
- His phone shows “out of coverage.”
- The path feels endless, as though the trees keep repeating.
He eventually reaches the other side, but it’s wrong:
- Instead of the road he expected, he appears on an unfamiliar country road not shown on his map.
- Nearby buildings—like a training center and village facilities—are in complete ruin, wrecked like the result of a disaster.
- There are no people, no signs of life, and the damage looks far too extreme to be normal decay.
An old man (wearing a modernized hanbok, which makes the narrator feel even more out of place) calls him back:
- He asks how the narrator ended up there.
- The old man points toward the direction the narrator came from and tells him to go straight back—emphasizing “time”, not just place.
The narrator runs immediately, terrified by the wording and the urgency implied.
When he reaches the road, he breaks down crying and tries to contact others.
Everyone around him dismisses him as:
- joking, or
- having eaten something weird and should stop talking nonsense.
The narrator insists it really happened, ending with the idea that the incident may relate to distorted time/space caused by transmission-tower electricity—a hypothesis rejected by mainstream science.

Highlight: The chilling moment where everything is ruined, there are no people, and an old man warns him to return to the time he came from.

Closing note (video framing)

The uploader connects both stories to the idea that electric currents might distort time/space, speculating about anomalies related to transmission towers.
The video ends by thanking participants and reminding viewers to check the community post for winners.

Notable Jokes / Reactions

The stories are presented seriously (no major comedy beats), but there’s a recurring “break the disbelief” reaction:
- In the Kim Su-a story, the father initially dismisses the event as sleep paralysis / malfunction—until the app data contradicts it.
- In the orchard/time-slip story, peers dismiss it as someone talking nonsense after eating something, despite the narrator insisting it’s undeniable.
