The Buddhism Times was published in August 1935, the year the Simjeon Development Movement, was launched, and was published monthly. It published many articles related to the Simjeon Development Movement, in the 1930s. The Buddhism Times, published in eight tabloids, was published once a month without being filtered out to No. 105, published April 15, 1944. In the background of the publication of Buddhism Times, Buddhist sentiment deeply sympathized with the Agrarian Improvement Movement was deep. Since its inception in 1935, the Simjeon Development Movement has called on people who have been deprived of the country to clarify the idea of nationality, to cultivate the spirit and beliefs of god worship, and to foster a spirit of reward, thanksgiving and independence. The Buddhist community has also been actively sympathizing, including holding a roundtable on Japanese imperialism. It is important to understand the characteristics of Buddhism Times when we summarize the title of the editorial. Once published monthly, Buddhism Times appeared mainly on articles related to the Simjeon Development Movement. In addition to the editorials in the Buddhism Times, Kim Tae-Ab also wrote editorial articles in every issue of the newspaper.
Founded in May 1925, Joseon Buddhism, the predecessor of the Joseon Buddhism, was a Buddhist organization organized in September 1920. It was formed at the beginning of the later Japanese cultural politics. The executives of the Chosun Buddhism, which was founded in May 1925, were heads of director Yun Yoon-yong, vice-chairman Han Chang-soo and Maeda Noburu. In 1924, Lee Won-seok, Gentaro Nakamura, and Genroku Kobayashi, who were in charge of establishing the foundation, were selected as executive directors. Chosun Buddhism, which was expanded and reorganized as a foundation in 1925, was the most sincerely held event in 1929, the National Buddhism Buddhism. The status of Joseon Buddhism since 1930 is not well understood. This is because it is not easy to find the news in Chosun Buddhism. This means that the activities of Chosun Buddhism have entered a lull. In fact, the goal of Chosun Buddhism was to overcome the relationship between Koreans and Buddhists in Japan. The best task was to exchange Japanese and Korean Buddhists. Chosun Buddhism was based on the consolidation of two Buddhist denominations and published in the first issue of Chosun Buddhism. The activities included strengthening influence on Korean Buddhism, subsidizing internal integration policies, and ideological control of Koreans. To this end, lectures and workshops were held, the publication of the magazine, the dispatch of Japanese students and field trips, and participation in social projects. This series of activities is very similar to the activities developed in the Simjeon Development Movement launched in the 1930s. Ugaki governor's interest, understanding, and support of Chosun Buddhism have been important clues to find out the relationship with the Simjeon Development Movement.
