Abstract

Park Han-young is a high priest in the Buddhist world who lived through turbulent times from the end of the Joseon Dynasty through the Japanese colonial period to the modern society. He devoted himself to the independence movement during the Japanese colonial period with a strong anti-Japanese consciousness at a time of hardship in the history of the nation. Park Han-young's career can be summarized in three aspects: first, the Reform movement through Buddhist group, second, the national salvation movement through education, and third, the anti-Japanese movement through participation in the Hanseong Provisional Government and the Daedongdan activities. It can be said that his Buddhist reform movement was an effort to establish the identity of the Korean Buddhist community. These efforts appeared in the form of the movement to establish the Imje Order, the movement to abolish temple ordinances, and to educate the public, which were part of the anti-Japanese movement. Park Han-young's Buddhist Restoration Movement was an effort to restore the subjectivity of Korean Buddhist circles due to the religious aggression of the Japanese imperialists, aiming for an anti-feudal and anti-foreign power from the end of the Joseon Dynasty to the period of Japanese colonial rule. Park Han-young's independence movement can be divided into the Hanseong Provisional Government, the activities of the Daedongdan, and submission of the Korean People's Pacific ocean Peace Conference. All these activities were laborious efforts aimed at constructing an independent and independent modern nation-state. Park Han-young's disciples asked the Ministry of Patriots and Veterans Affairs to select him as a meritorious person for independence in 2010 to commemorate Park Han-young's deeds. It is said that the Ministry of Patriots and Veterans Affairs made a suspended decision after examining Park Han-young's anti-Japanese movements. It is said that the problem was that Park Han-young served as the head of the Central Buddhist College as the head of the labor patriotism at the time of the National Spiritual Mobilization Movement after the Sino-Japanese War. This thesis attempts to elucidate these problems, reveal the Buddhist reform movement, education project, and independence movement of Park Han-young, and suggest a new alternative by finding its significance. Furthermore, I hope that this thesis will serve as an opportunity to revitalize the research of Han-Young Park and open a new horizon in the modern and contemporary Buddhist world.
