 Dear Members, 
 We are pleased to introduce our publications in Korean Studies. 
 Drawing on diverse epigraphic materials such as steles and epitaphs, this book broadens our understanding of ancient and medieval Korean history from the Three Kingdoms to the Goryeo periods. It comprehensively reconstructs the lives of key figures, the status of Buddhist temples, state-religion dynamics, and socio-ideological trends.
