Beopheung of Silla

[1] His name was inscribed on Bongpyeong Silla Stele and Cheonjeonri Petroglyphs as Mojeukji (牟卽智, 另卽智).

One of King Beopheung's ministers, a man named Ichadon, was a Buddhist convert who had even shaved his head and took the tonsure.

In the end, Ichadon was executed in public, but before his head was cut off, he stated that the blood spilled from his body would not be red but milky white.

[3] According to the Samguk yusa, his predictions proved correct, and Ichadon's milky blood horrified the ministers of the kingdom.

As a result of Ichadon's martyrdom, King Beopheung finally chose Buddhism as the state religion.
