Paper Summary:

The paper discusses how Shamanism is one of the oldest religions in Korea, originating in ancient times and continuing today. Shamanism has its long history as the belief of tradition is deeply embedded in Korean society. Some evidence shows that certain shamanistic rituals have remained almost unchanged throughout the history, yet shamanism adapted itself with each historical period. Furthermore, the paper explains that it has mixed with and influenced other newer religions in the region, including Buddhism, Taoism and Christianity and has in turn been influenced by some of these religions, too.
