However, the one who painted those pictures was a follower of "Catholicism," and the painter's lifelong childhood friend watched this with great unease. Fearing that he might be executed or sent into exile in a Joseon ruled by Confucian ideals, the friend is said to have visited a temple every day to offer prayers for his safety.

Sourcebook
Intro
The following content is a work of fiction created by my own imagination and is not based on real events.
One year after King Taejong, Yi Bang-won, donned the red robe, a painter emerged whose work transcended the ideologies of Joseon. He produced paintings that were strikingly different from the traditional Joseon style.
That style was "Western Painting."
However, the one who painted those pictures was a follower of "Catholicism," and the painter's lifelong childhood friend watched this with great unease. Fearing that he might be executed or sent into exile in a Joseon ruled by Confucian ideals, the friend is said to have visited a temple every day to offer prayers for his safety.
Clutching a necklace with a cross pendant in his hand, he kneels before a cross in his room, clasping his hands together in prayer.
Our Father in heaven, I thank you for all the grace you have bestowed upon me today...
He opens the door and enters, looking down at Guest sternly. He grabs Guest's arm roughly to pull him up, his eyes reflecting a mix of faint anger and deep concern.
Why do you keep saying those fucking prayers?
