	Jeong Dojeon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Jeong Dojeon was a major opponent of Buddhism at the end of the Goryeo period.
		Jeong was among the first Korean scholars to refer to his thought as silhak, or "practical learning." However, he is not usually numbered among the members of the Silhak tradition, which arose much later in the Joseon period.
		Jeong divided society into three classes: a large lower class of agricultural laborers and craftsmen, a middle class of literati, and a small upper class of bureaucrats.

	Taejo of Joseon
		King Gongyang and his family were sent into exile in 1392 (where they would later be secretly murdered), but the renowned scholar, poet and statesman Jeong Dojeon(정몽주(鄭夢周)) faithfully supported the king, leading the opposition to Yi’s claim to the throne.
		Jeong was revered throughout Goryeo, even by Yi himself, but he was seen to be an obstacle and as such had to be removed.
		The 474-year-old Goryeo Dynasty ended with the exile of King Gongyang and the death of Jeong Mong-ju, and was followed by the Joseon Dynasty.

	[KS] Jeong Dojeon's and Gihwa's Texts (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
		It was in his final treatise however (the _Bulssi japbyeon_; "Array of Critiques of Buddhism") that he arranged all of the complaints against Buddhism that had been leveled through Hanyu, the Cheng brothers, and Zhuxi into one final summary argument against the Seon Buddhist tradition.
		The monk Gihwa, who was the leading figure of the Buddhist _sangha_ at the outset of the Joseon, and who was also originally a Confucian scholar of considerable accomplishment, felt compelled to answer the critiques that had been summarized in Jeong's work.
		He did so in a treatise entitled the _Hyeonjeong non_ ("Exposition of the Correct"), a work that presents a largely conciliatory response, but which nonetheless takes the Confucians to task for the disparity between what is said in their classical texts, and what they actually do in practice.

	Neo-Confucianism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		At the time of the rise of Neo-Confucianism in Korea, Buddhism was firmly entrenched as the state religion, in an increasingly corrupt manner.
		The corruption of Buddhism, along with what were regarded as its essential errors in understanding human nature, were strongly criticized by a series of Neo-Confucian thinkers, with this criticism reaching its peak in the works of Jeong Dojeon (1348-1398), whose magnum opus was the Bulssi japbyeon ("Array of Critiques of Buddhism"), written in nineteen chapters.
		Largely as a result of the efforts of Jeong and his associates, the Buddhists were cast out of the seat of power in the coup d'etat of 1398, resulting in the founding of the Joseon dynasty, which would endure for almost five centuries.

		This was facilitated by the establishment in 1398 of Sungkyunkwan_University—a national university with a Confucian curriculum—and the building of an altar at the palace, where the king would worship his ancestors.
		To a great extent, two figures have lasting influence concluding the Goryeo dynasty: Jeong Dojeon (1324-1398) and the monk, Gihwa (1376-1433) who assisted the transition from Buddhism to neo-Confucianism with tremendously interesting debate.
