It was first introduce to Korea from China in the 4 century C.E. The country was divided into 3 kingdoms, Koguryo, Silla and Paekche. It first arrived in Koguryo and then steadily spread to the other two kingdoms. It was accepted from the court first and then to its people. After the unified country by the kingdom Silla in the 660s Buddhism then begin to prospered throughout Korea! The number of scholars and reformed helped Buddhism to thrive in korea.
