Over the past years HapDongJeongTong has developed into a strong denomination. Its origins go back to the beginnings of the mainline and non-mainline division in 1979. In 1980 representatives of the non-mainline churches, together with Gospel Seminary, founded HapDongJinRi (no. 34). A year later some members of HapDong JinRi joined forces with YunHap. YunHap had started in 1976 as an alliance of independent churches and had integrated in 1981 with the Grace denomination. HapDongJinRi and YunHap united and in 1982 formed a new denomination under the name HapDongJeongTong. In subsequent years the denomination grew rapidly, both through evangelism and through integration with smaller denominations. It runs a theological college and a press.
