It is a fiction.

About Shaman. korea has so many kind of superstition. In movie 'The face reader', reading face is one thing to read a fate. In this movie, there is 'Mudang'. 'Baksu' has literally two meaning, clap. and also means male shaman(exactly male Mudang). 'Mudang' is a person who can see a ghost(In korea, there are so many kind of gods like 'Dangun' who built korea. If these gods come into someone's body, they can see the future of others.). or ghost protect the mudang and tell to mudang someone's secret.

About palmistry. You can see another superstition, 'reading palmistry'. In early of the film, 'Gwangho' was hurt his hand by a knife. and it changes his fate. 'Palmistry' is a kind of reading fate. for example, if you see your left palm, you can find a line from middle between thumb and index finger to your wrist. that line presents your life. if it is long and clear, you will live long and clear life. it is just one thing of 'Reading palmistry'.
