Kuk Jo Jeon

This weekend on the way to an end-of the-year staff planning retreat for the E-Learning Center Team at UBE, Kim Jin-Yi and I visited Kuk Jo Jeon, a temple near Youngdong.


That's a Dangun statue in the background, similar to the one at the Peace Park at Kookhakwon/UBE. You may remember that Dangun was the founder of an ancient Korean culture based on the "Hongik" philosophy, or living for the betterment of all humanity and the Earth. There were 47 Danguns who ruled in Korea. This Dangun statue is known as "Healing Dangun". It is said that the energy from this statue can heal your body.
