 * Comment Searching for "egg demon" and "egg ghost" brings up a few mentions so it's not a hoax, but I'm not seeing anything in depth in English. I've left a message at Wikiproject Korea asking for help from Korean editors who, if this is notable, will be able to find references in Korean. --NellieBly (talk) 07:29, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

 * Comment This definitely needs an attention of a native speaker of Korean. The Egg ghost appears to be a popular phenomenon in the Korean culture, however, the content of our article should be clarified and properly explained. I found some coverage in English, see this article published by The Keimyung Gazette, or two short reviews of a Korean short film called Egg Ghost. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 15:55, 30 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. This English source, only snippets visible online, seems to be a reliable source confirming this piece of folklore.  Plugging the Korean language string (달걀 귀신) into Google News, Books, and Scholar all give a fair number of results; unfortunately I can't help with them.  This appears to be genuine folklore, and not a hoax.  - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 16:41, 30 November 2011 (UTC)
