The first educational institution is dated from the era of the Three Kingdoms. This institution is one which is founded by government. After that, Gugjagam in its center and Confucian temples in its region were established in the Koryo dynasty through the Unified Silla The Confucian temple along with Gun-hyun system is a kind of the national educational institution for confucianism, which is located in the country, but not in the center, which is called as Gyo-kwan or Je-kwan. It plays a role in admiring and honoring the traditional Confucian scholars in Koryo and Chosun dynasty and old China as well as Confucius Incheon has its units at its districts called as Incheon, Bupeong, Ganghwa, and Kyodong Confucian temple. This is to investigate the time of establishment and construction of Confucial temple and its system though the data such as Incheonhyangyojungsugi by Cheoi-hang, Jungsusangryangmun by Jeong-jong-bin, Incheonhyangyojungsugi by Seong-gyun and Incheonhyangyoji As a result, Incheon Confucian temple is established on the right to east of the current Munhak Elementary School (the old location of the Incheon Dohoboo) Incheon Confucian temple is supposed to be established in the era of King Injong in view of the time of establishment of the Confucian temples in Bupeong and Ganghwa in its similar or lower levels compared with Incheon The System of Incheon Confucian temple is founded through the remodeling processes by several times. Especially, Jungsugi is one of the important data which the system of the Confucian system at that time can be found. Incheon Confucian temple in Chosun Dynasty was remodeled by Shin-gae in 1406, by Min-hyoyeol in 1466, Lee-seongwon in 1501 or 1502. This remodeling of Incheon Confucian temple is caused by the fact that the head of the village should develop the institution and can be promoted by the government for that.
