Sancheong-gun Holds Memorial Ceremony to Comfort the Spirits of the Fallen in Jirisan from the Korean War
Event Hosted by Sancheong Buddhist Temple Association, Conducted in Traditional Buddhist Style
[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] A memorial ceremony was held to console the souls of those who were unjustly sacrificed around Jirisan Mountain during the Korean War.
Sancheong-gun, Gyeongnam Province, announced on the 8th that the Jirisan Spirit Memorial Ceremony was held at Geobeosa Temple in Danseong-myeon, organized by the Sancheong Buddhist Temple Association.
The Jirisan Spirit Memorial Ceremony is a traditional Buddhist event held to comfort the souls who perished in Jirisan Mountain.
Although it has been held annually in conjunction with the Buddhist Cultural Festival, this year, as well as last year, only the memorial ceremony was conducted to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
