Shamanism is one of the oldest religions that have existed on the Korean Peninsula. This system of belief, which is called Muism, provides a well-organised structure of the universe. Furthermore, it can be considered as a source of good values and emotions. It focuses on striving to achieve harmony and unity between man and the world around him.

The publication analyses the ideology, rules and features of Muism.
