초록

Wolnamsa was a temple located in the south of Mt. Wolchul(月出山) in Yeongam, Jeonnam Province. Jiriji(地理志) of Joseon first mentioned it as a temple in the Gangjin(康津) area, which indicates that it was one of the representative temples in the area. This study reviewed the temple by taking into active consideration the circumstances of its surroundings in Goryeo and early Joseon. Gyeonhuan(甄萱) and Wanggeon(王建) fought over the dominance of Gangjin area in late Shilla and early Goryeo, thus trying to build a temple to support them. Muwuisa(無爲寺) was connected to Wanggeon, and Wolnamsa was closely related to Gyeonhuan.
Standing at a strategic traffic point, Wolnamsa provided convenience to travelers and was deeply connected to the figures that participated in the Buddhist services around Mt. Wolchul. It originally belonged to Seonjong(禪宗) and later to Cheontaejong(天台宗) along with Ssangbongsa(雙峯寺) after Uicheon(義天) created it.
During the reign of Choi Woo(崔瑀), one of the military men that ruled Goryeo, the Buddhist circles in the Gangjin area seem to have been in fierce competitions. Supported by the powerful local families, Baekryeonsa(白蓮寺) was devoted to reformation and Buddhist alms and thus built a solid foundation in the area. Wolnamsa went through rebuilding by the help of Jingakguksa(眞覺國師) Hyeshim(慧諶), being connected to Suseonsa(修禪社). Then it returned back to Seonjong. It appears that Manjeon(萬全), who would later become Choi Hang(崔沆), made frequent visits to the temple after entering Buddhist priesthood, which offers some clues about the connections between the temple and him. The stone monument of Hyeshim were built at Wolnamsa to check the construction of stupa and stone monument of Wonmyoguksa(圓妙國師) at Baekryeonsa.
Wolnamsa seems to have held an important place during the restoration era of Gakjinguksa(覺眞國師) at the end of Goryeo and shrunk considerably in early Joseon due to the policy of suppressing Buddhism. Unlike it, Muwuisa and Baekryeonsa prospered under the sponsorship of local residents and Hyoryeongdaegun(孝寧大君), a member of royal family. It managed to keep its situations and eventually closed in the 17th century.
