'Overlooked Historical Records of the Three Korean Kingdoms deals mainly with materials related to the foundation of various old Korean kingdoms, to the factual history of the Silla Kingdom, and to the lives of famous Korean Buddhist monks. This book not only presents various myths and legends that reveal the phases of Korean ancestors' old social life, economy, culture, and thoughts, but also furnishes ample data on their traditional manners and customs, whose traces are still found in modern Korean culture.'
