Address: 191 Bongnam-ri, Hesan-myeon, Yeonggwang-gun, Jeollanam-do In 1908, Eugene Bell, a Korean missionary who was active in the Mokpo Mission, landed at the port of Pugu and walked along the west coast. He heard the gospel of Moon Yeong-guk and Jeong Jeong-ok who formed anti-Japanese forces against the Iljin Party. He established the Church of Hilsan Lee (now the Yalcol Church), which became the mother of these local churches. The Church of Hilsung was established in 1939 (at that time, Oksiri Church). In 1947, it moved to the location of Fyeongnam, and changed its name to the Church of Hilsung. The church of Hyeolsan was also involved in the campaign to eradicate the Japanese imperialism and to refuse to visit the shrine. On September 29, 1950, when the Armed Forces entered the glory, the Communists, who had not retreated, burned down the church on October 7, tied the members to the seaside hydrangea barrels and strapped them with large boulders. At this time, 77 people were martyred, three-fourths of the total. In 1997, the martyrdom commemorative project was promoted, 2,000 pyeong martial parks were established, the martial arts pavilion exhibition hall and martial arts education were opened, and 77 martyrs were built in front of the church. On the back of the 77-meter martyrdom monument erected at the entrance of the temple of Hwasan, there are those whose names have not been raised yet. Choi, Mi-chan, Choi, Nam ... In the manner of the innocent. 77 people who had not left a single flesh and blood on the ground because all the family members were killed. They said they prayed "thank Jesus" as they die. Kim, the only surviving second son of Pastor Kim's family, returned and worked as the 4th minister of the Church of Jesus Christ following his father. After his appointment, his first preaching sounded in people's hearts. "I came here to pay for my parents' brethren. What would be the return of the enemy? Is not it to pay them to believe in Jesus and to make them go to heaven to repay the true enemies before God? Please join me in this work. "
