According to the Chapter Kiyi of Samkukyusa, King Gyeongdeok had a mutual exchange of opinions with lots of monks. Among them, monk Chungdam wrote Song Anmin for King Gyeongdeok and monk Pyohun helped King Gyeongdeok born a prince by praying to the god. Monk Il-yeon thought they had a personal relationship, so he named ‘King Gyeongdeok, monk Chungdam and Pyohun’ at the Chapter Kiyi of Samkukyusa.
The Song Anmin has a lot of content analysis, but historical analysis is not enough. According to lyrics, people are required to perform their own duty. It’s a sign of the times.
Daesung Kim introduced monk Pyohun to King Gyeongdeok. Pyohun met the Great Jade Emperor to ask him whether the king could have a prince. The Great Jade Emperor said no, but monk Pyohun helped the king to have a prince. Because he disobeyed an order, monk Pyohun couldn’t meet The Great Jade Emperor ever. This was an effort to overcome political problems linked to the royal male heir.
King Gyeondeok, monk Chungdam and Pyohun are closely connected. Of course, we don’t know how monk Chungdam and Pyohun are related, however, we could guess they are a loyal subject. This is the reason why Monk Il-yeon titled this way at the Chapter Kiyi of Samkukyusa.
