Recorded origin, in the register's own words

신라시대에 주룡선생이 도를 닦던 터라는 전설이 있으며 1747년 이조 영조때 우의정 송인명이 절을 크게 중수하고 1990년에 현 건물에 중수 조선후기에 개화사를 약사사로 개칭

This paragraph is the origin and history field of the traditional temple register published by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety, copied exactly. We leave it in Korean rather than translating it, because a translation would put founding dates, people and schools of Buddhism into words the source never used. Nothing here was added or edited by us.
