However, according to legend, the Silla monarchy was convinced to adopt the faith by the martyrdom of the Silla court noble Ichadon, who was executed for his Buddhist faith by the Silla king in 527 only to have his blood flow the color of milk.
Men ifølge legenden, blev Silla-monarkiet overbevist om at antage troen ved den ædle Ichadons martyrium, da han blev henrettet for sin buddhistiske tro af Sillas domstol af kongen af Silla i 527, og hans blod flød med farven på mælk.
