The narrative structure of ‘wonhon(寃魂) ghost tales’ can be explained to have the appearance of the ghost figures and its destruction, which have been considered as ‘gyulone(結寃)' which means unresolved problems remained knotted and 'hewon(解寃)’ which the problems finally resolved. One of the characteristics found in the descriptions of the ghost figures is that they have the intention to represent the problematic situation of the ghosts as vivid as possible by using every senses of seeing, hearing and touching. The 'wonhon ghost tales', therefore, are structured in such ways as the ghost figures could be represented as vivid as you see them in your eyes. The descriptive figures help the story tellers' rememberance through association as well as enhance the listeners' interests in the stories they're listening to. The figures of ghosts will be impressed in listeners' minds as certain images while they are listening. Through the process, the figures of the ghosts described in the tales have been culturally conventionalized and have acquired a few common features to become a universal representation. In ‘Arang type tales', the figures change from a virgin to a ghost with a passionate longing unfulfilled, a butterfly, a living corpse and a dissolved corpse, representing the inner state of the ghosts and the changes of the real situations the ghosts are under. But the ghost figures described in 'bride type tales' appear as a bride to a bride with a passionate longing uncompleted and a dissolved corpse. The images of the figures are so strong that they are easily carved in listeners' minds as some fixed unchanging images regardless of the change of time. One of the principles found in the description of the ghost figures is their denial of time. This characteristic which might be called a denial to physical time are especially effective for their economic and symbolical description of the psychological areas representing the ghosts' consciousness. The appearance of vivid images of the ghost figures and their disappearance are the images for the opposite situations of the ghosts in which their unresolved problems still remain and they are finally resolved. The time and space in which ghost figures appear are usually considered the areas beyond daily life and on the borderline of this and that world, which exactly match with the ghosts' existential positions. The description of ghost figures, which always try to rehabilitate the ghosts' problematic situations, emphasizes their visual images. As the result, the ghost tales have acquired such characteristics as image-centered narrative structure, strongly sympathetic ability based on the conventional concept of the ghosts and highly descriptive quality to summon the real problematic situations. This is why ‘wonhon(寃魂) ghost tales’ are so frequently recreated in visual art forms like films.
