Iksan City and the National Iksan Museum announced a special exhibition titled 'Myeongmyeongbaekbaek: Jeoseoksa, Illuminating the Baekje Royal Temple' from November 10 to February 9 at the National Iksan Museum's exhibition hall. Jeoseoksa, built by Baekje's King Mu about 1.3 km east of the royal palace, served as a royal temple dedicated to the peace of the royal family and the nation. 

This exhibition aims to highlight the historical significance of Jeoseoksa and Baekje's royal Buddhist culture. A total of 325 items, including 245 artifacts excavated from Jeoseoksa and related records, will be displayed, allowing visitors to explore the lost temple's architecture and sculpture techniques. Notably, the exhibition will feature the 'Gwanseum-eumgyeonggi,' a historical document detailing King Mu's relocation to Iksan, which will be publicly displayed for the first time in Korea. 

The document, housed at the Shoren-in Temple in Kyoto, Japan, records the establishment of Jeoseoksa and the fire in 639, making it a crucial source for understanding the historical significance of Iksan as the Baekje capital. This exhibition also presents new research results by comparing and combining small sculptures excavated from Jeoseoksa, previously scattered across various institutions.
