In China, the meditation hall, where monks practice meditation, eat, and sleep together, appeared around the 8th to 9th centuries. The specific functions and architectural forms of the meditation hall are known by the Cheonggyu(淸規) compiled and disseminated during the Song Dynasty, when Seon Buddhism was most prosperous, and by materials recorded by Japanese monks of that time. The temple system of the Seon Buddhism temples of the Song Dynasty, including meditation hall, was transmitted to Japan at the time and had a great influence on the formation of Seon Buddhism temples in the Middle Ages. On the other hand, in Korea, until the late Goryeo Dynasty, unlike in China or Japan at the time, the meditation hall was used only for meditation practice, and the dining hall and a building called Seungmu(僧廡) for sleeping and daily life were built separately. And the meditation hall was equipped with a heating system unique to Korea called Gudeul. The meditation hall of Hoeamsa Temple, which was rebuilt by Naong(懶翁) in the end of the Goryeo Dynasty by introducing the temple system of Chinese Seon Buddhism temples, took on the general appearance of East Asian Seon Buddhism temples, but it also maintained the characteristics of Goryeo Buddhism architecture.

본 논문은 중국 사찰 채화의 시대별 전개 양상, 독자성과 보편성 등을 파악 하며 한국과 중국의 단청과 채화를 비교・분석한 것이다. 중국 채화는 송대에 편찬된 『영조법식(營造法式)』에 의해 정형화되었고, 명・청대는 채화의 전성기 를 이루었다. 고려시대 단청은 중국과 차별화된 이른바 한국적인 특색을 나타 내었고, 조선시대에는 명・청과 정치, 경제, 문화 등 여러 방면으로 교류하면서 사찰 단청의 형식과 문양 등에서 보편성과 특수성을 띠게 되었다. 명・청 사찰 채화와 조선시대 사찰 단청의 머리초[조두], 금문(錦紋), 별지화[잡화], 단독문 등을 통해 공통점과 독자적인 특징을 살펴보았다. 머리초・금문・단독문은 한 부재에 반복적으로 사용되는 도안화된 장식문이고, 별지화는 부재별로 다양한 도상이 사용된 회화적 장식화이다. 한국 단청과 중국 채화의 유사한 문양 가운 데 네 종류를 선별해 조선시대 단청과 명・청대 채화를 비교하였다. 이를 통해 양국 단청[채화]의 차이점과 공통점 그리고 국가별 독자성을 파악할 수 있었다.

In the study of Buddhist architecture before the Goryeo Dynasty, the analysis of sectarian viewpoints is one of the effective means. In the study of Buddhist architecture before the Goryeo Dynasty, analyzing from the point of view of a Buddhism sect is one of the effective means. Until now, compared to the importance of the Beopsang school before the Goryeo period in the field of research on the history of Buddhist architecture, research on its temples was the least compared to those of other denominations. In this study, as one of the studies on Beopsang school temples, Geumsansa(金山寺), Beopjusa(法住寺), and Donghwasa(桐華寺), which were built as the Jinpyo’s Beopsang school temple in the late 8th century and maintained until the Goryeo Dynasty, were targeted. And I tried a rudimentary analysis on the building composition of those temples from the viewpoint of the beliefs and teachings of Beopsang school. This study is meaningful in that it is the first attempted study in the field of architectural history on the Buddhist temple of the Beopsang school, which led non-Zen sects of Buddhism along with the Hwaeom school until the Goryeo Dynasty.

The subjects of this study were limited to Silla buddhist temple remains in the 6～8th century, where the excavation survey report was published and the details of the remains of the corridor are revealed. Since the corridor completes the structure of temple and is involved in formation of the space, the building plan for corridors is thought to have an intention linked to the entire temple. Thus, more closer study is required for this construction plan to identify the role of corridors. The corridor is a building that has a low architectural hierarchy and completes the layout and composition of the temple. In the unit planning of the corridor, unit were designed to be of a certain size in the temple layout. Then, the overall scale was made by adding the fixed size of unit. The combination of corridors are the combined points of paths and were used as visual points. The structure of the corridor was constructed to be adjusted according to the size of the main compartment of the building to which it was connected and inserted under the roof of the building. The adjustment of the unit changed in the range of 0.5 to 2 of Silla’s system of measurement. The usage of embedded pillar in the corridor presents a new perspective on Silla architecture.

In this study, I would like to inquire about the composition of oegi(外機) on the hip and gable roof. Oegi purlin compose the basic member of framework of a hip and gable roof in both sides roof, supporting the inside end of the side rafter. However, the oegi purlin is not simply used to form hip and gable roof. The effects of using oegi purlin have the advantages of spatial. The spatial advantages are the width of the toekan(退間) increases as the oegi purlin escapes from column row and to increase the ceiling height by becoming a point of staying the ceiling. That reflect the desire to expand indoor space due to changes in worship behavior. Oegi purlin was used not only for structural needs, but also for altering in indoor space due to the changing times.
