The early dawn prayer ceremony can only be seen in Korea. In the past time, about 1900s, an elder of a church in Pyeongyang, Sun-ju Gil, started to pray in the time of early dawn about his country's hardship - the Japanese occupation. This ceremony became popular and many people woke themselves up in the early morning and started to pray together by gathering in their churches. This special service went down to posterity and settled down as a representative Korean christianity character.
