In 1742(18th year in the reign of King Yeongjo), by King's command, a shrine was built to enshrine mortuaries of them to hold memorial service.
In 22nd year in the reign of King Yeongjo, Jo, Hamang, the governor, renamed Nakhwaam to Changyeolam. In 25th year in the reign of King Yeongjo, Kim, Eungbok, the governor, repaired the shrine and renamed it to Minchung. In 1758(34th year in the reign of King Yeongjo), it was restored by King's command.
