※ The actual region of the content is selected.Gilsangsa Temple was once one of the foremost yojeong, a place where powerful men used to convene behind the scenes.The temple is named after the woman who donated the buildings, a gisaeng (a female entertainer and/or courtesan) named Kim Yeong-han who had a change of heart after reading "Non-Possession" by Venerable Beopjeong Sunim. The monk initially denied her request, but in 1995 decided to turn the buildings into a temple. As a result, the temple has a very unusual atmosphere because it kept many of its original features. The temple is highly regarded for its involvement in cultural exchanges with other religions, and its programs to help visitors experience Buddhism.
