Siseol is a procedure of being taken to Ogugut, Gyeongsangbuk-do, and refers to the whining of the deceased in accordance with the rhythm of the Siseol bond. In Ogu-gut, Gyeongsangbuk-do, Siseol are performed by Golmaegi-gut, Ancestral-gut, Chomangja-gut, Balwon-gut, Notdong-woo-gut, Neoggil-gum, lantern song. The reason why Siseol is repeated in other gut streets except for Chomangjagut, where the deceased is the main character, is that Siseol account for an important proportion of Ogugut.
Siseol that appear with the word “soul” are usually filled with resentment, sadness, and gratitude for their families. Siseol is the whining of the deceased, but when the facility begins to be taken away, the whining becomes a solvent that triggers a conversation between the deceased and the family. Ogugut is a faith and ritual that relieves the resentment of the dead and ascends to paradise. Since "Han" is formed based on relationships, interaction is bound to be premised, so both the deceased and the family are accompanied by mutual expression of emotions.
Ogugut wants to achieve community solidarity with Haewon, which becomes possible through the expression of emotions through Siseol. The family, who became aware of the ‘emotional ego’ based on emotions, checks the process of the change of the deceased based on emotions from then on. The basic formula of ‘expression of negative emotions → weakening of negative emotions → generating positive emotions’ appears in Siseol.
The reason why shaman especially focuses on emotions such as sorrow and sadness in the first half of Gut is that the emotions tend to be dealt with for a very long time and the spread is also strong, so it has a large personal and social impact. However, repeating Siseol, the deceased and the bereaved families have a friendly feeling of trust. The main characteristic of trust is that the object of other emotions is individual others, while the object of trust is the future. Whether it is a negative trust that may cause harm or a positive trust that will bring blessings, trust is all a feeling that gives confidence in the future world. Through the proposal of Ogugut, shaman creates a trust relationship, a positive future promise, to resolve the negative emotions of the deceased and the bereaved family, especially through a device called Siseol.
