"도사" (Dosa) refers to a practitioner of traditional Korean shamanism, known as 무속 (Musok). These individuals are believed to have the ability to communicate with spirits and deities, often serving as intermediaries between the spiritual and physical worlds. Dosa perform rituals and ceremonies to seek guidance, healing, and blessings for individuals or communities. In Korean culture, the role of a 도사 is significant, especially during important life events such as births, weddings, and funerals. They may use various tools, including 부적 (amulets) and 제사 (ritual offerings), to enhance their spiritual practices. The traditions associated with 도사 are deeply rooted in Korea's history and continue to influence modern spiritual beliefs.
