Will Yook Sung-jae sacrifice himself for Kim Ji-yeon in 'Haunted Palace'?

In the 5th episode of the SBS Friday-Saturday drama "Haunted Palace" (written by Yoon Soo-jung, directed by Yoon Sung-sik), which aired on the 2nd, Kang-cheol (played by Yook Sung-jae) learns a way to confront the Palchek-gwi.

On this day, Prince Yeong-in (played by Kim Seon-bin) dies due to the Palchek-gwi, and Kang-cheol asks Monk Gaseob (played by Lee Won-jong), "You say there is a wicked spirit called Palchek-gwi that is the best in this country, with your guByeongsiSik...? I can hold it off for a short time with my power, but it's difficult to completely get rid of that. Can you help send that wicked spirit away?"

Monk Gaseob said, "Do you really not know? The only way to fully send away such a powerful wicked spirit is either with the dragon's pearl or these luminous pearls inside a being like you, a Imugi. Without them, the wicked spirit's grudge can never be resolved."

He then suggested, "You have to sacrifice yourself. As you said, you might be able to hold them off for a short time with the luminous pearl. You can only send away the powerful wicked spirit like the Palchek-gwi by completely exhausting the luminous pearl in your belly and sacrificing yourself. How about it? Will you give it a try?"

Then, Kang-cheol exclaimed, "This bumbling monk—are you telling me to use up all my luminous pearl to catch just a Palchek-gwi and die?"
