A signifant contrast can be seen when compared with the SIFC building across the street, which is showing smooth progress with several stories up already. The City of Seoul reached an agreement in 2005 with an overseas financial institution to begin the construction of the SIFC on the city owned lot and designated Yeouido as a 'Global Financial Center' in February of this year. SIFC and Parc 1 function as essential landmarks of this international financial center. The 56 story SIFC and 72 story Parc 1 were destined to become the new skyscrapers of Seoul. The reason the construction stopped as of November, 2010 is the result of a dispute between the land owner and the superficiary. The original owner of the land is the “Support Foundation for the Holy Spirit Association for the Unification of World Christianity” (hereinafter referred to as the Unification Church Foundation), is the owner of this piece of land and signed a contract with Y22 Finance Investment in May of 2005, which gave Y22 a 99 year term for control over the superficies.

    SCHISM in the Unification Church By Dan Fefferman, International Coalition for Religious Freedom Email – [email protected] Presented to the 2016 CESNUR Conference July 5 – 10, 2016, Daejin University, Republic of Korea Preliminary version. Please do not reproduce or quote without the consent of the author. This will be an update of my earlier paper, presented to the CENSUR conference in 2012.1 There have been major developments since then, beginning with the death of the UC’s founder. The initial schism in the Unification Movement began in 2008 when Rev. Moon’s then heir-apparent, Hyun Jin Moon, split from the main group after he was passed over in favor of the youngest son, Hyung Jin.2 After Rev. Moon passed away, Mrs. Moon took on the mantle of leadership, and since then the youngest son has formed a third faction. This paper will compare and 1 http://www.cesnur.org/2012/el-fefferman.docx 2 The names of the Moon children are often hard for non-Koreans to follow. Hyun Jin, the older son, is often called Preston.

Sun Myung Moon, the founder and Messiah of the Unification Church, passed away on September 3, 2012. His funeral took place at the Church’s major complex in Cheong Pyeong on September 15 of that year. (The current CESNUR conference will have a field trip to the Cheong Pyeong site two days from now.) He was succeeded by his wife, Hak Ja Han Moon, who together with him shares the title of True Parents.

Its existence and popularity are a global phenomenon, interesting not only for sociologists of religion but for politicians, philosophers and people of faith. The impact of this movement and the two-way social change remain a rare subject of study and this paper aims to fill the gaps and to discuss contemporary situation in regards to its followers.

  • Crisis in the Unification Church After Rev. Moon's Death
    Shin-Dong-A Crisis in the Unification Church after Rev. Moon’s death Hong Keun Song, Shin-Dong-A Magazine May 2013 Translation of pro-Hyun Jin Moon article by supporters of Hyun Jin Moon Rev. Moon’s 4th son and 7th son are also overthrown - Secretary rises as new influential figure Last September 3rd, the “controversial leader” passed away. Rev. Sun Myung Moon was born in the district of Jeong Joo in Pyung Book in 1920. The following is written in his autobiography “As a Peace Loving Global Citizen” that was published in 2009. “I am a controversial person. The mere mention of my name causes trouble in the world. I never sought money or fame but have spent my life speaking only of peace. The world, though, has associated many different phrases with my name, rejected me, and thrown stones at me. Many are not interested in knowing what I say or what I do. They only oppose me.” Even though the discussions over its theology are far from over, the Unification Church is the most successful religion in the 20th century among those that started in Korea. The Unification Church is both a religion and a business. There are some who even say that it is “a nation”. They increased their influence and minimized the image of a cult by initiating activities in the areas of education, media, academia, sports, arts, etc. The Segye Ilbo, Yong Pyoung resort, Sung Nam Il Hwa soccer team, Sun Won Construction, Saeil travel agency, etc., all belong to the Tongil Group.
