The origins of this church go back to Pastor Hur Kwang-Jae, who founded the Gospel Seminary in 1976. This institution became the nucleus of the BoKum denomination (1978). When the break occurred in HapDong (1979), they sought contacts with the non-mainline churches. But they soon separated because of the power struggle which was going on and because of their wish to maintain their own characteristics. In 1980 they organized themselves as a denomination under the name HapDongJinRi. One of the pastors of this church, Jang Jong-Hyun, separated from this denomination, merged with YunHap (Pastor Lee Young), and founded HapDongJeongTong (no. 37).
