Although Sin-Sunggyeom is estimated that he was born in Gokseong[谷城], Cholla province[全羅道] and a member of the powerful family[豪族] with the locally based, people who lived in his time remembered him as a man of Chuncheon[春川]'s origin. And then this memory was recorded on Koryeosa[高麗史] that the central government complied. However this memory was replaced by an opinion that he is a man of Gokseong's origin as the local memories spread, transmitted to the central government, and was recorded on the local paper.
Even if Sin-Sunggyeom was known as a man who was originally 'Im-Hyub[任俠], he seemed a general who had both literary and military arts, and had the local influence power. It may persume that he joined Gungye[弓裔]'s political power by the time Wang-Gun[王建], a commander who served Gungye, was taking southwestern seaboard in korea, in 903. However, when Gungye renamed the name of country as Majin[摩震] and also tried to establish a strong centralized state and to make landed proprietors[豪族] government officials, they came into conflict with Gungye's political power because they might lose their landed base. It presume that Sin-Sunggyeom[申崇謙] began to be connected with Chuncheon around that time. After Park-Yoo[朴儒] who was a member of the powerful family in Chuncheon fled because of discord with Goongye, the area seemed to be administered by Sin-Sunggyeom. So when Sin-Sunggyeom died in place of the king Taejo[太祖] in Koryeo Dynasty during a battle, Chuncheon seemed to be chosen as his burial ground.
Since Sin-Sunggyeom's loyalty had been passed down up to Chosun Dynasty, a movement for worship of him had constantly done. And his characteristic has been passed down until now beyond time and space. Especially in the late of Chosun Dynasty, the movement for worship expanded to the construction of his temple. The reason that the movement for worship of him as an absolute symbol of loyalty strengthened by spreading the propagation of Sung Confucianism that emphasizes the loyalty and filial piety after the war of the years of Im-Jin[壬辰] and Beong-Ja[丙子] is understood. He had been esteemed for his achievements as a meritorious retainer at the founding of a dynasty and his dead on half of the king Taejoduring Koryeo Dynasty, and had been recognized as a symbol of loyalty like Gisin[紀信] who died in place of the king Kojo[高祖] in Han[漢] Dynasty, China during Chosun Dynasty. His loyalty has been the steadfast object of the respect and admiration in spite of replacement of dynasties.
