This dissertation is written in order to research for the characteristics of Buddhist Gasa which were transmitted to folk in Kyeongsangbukdo province in three aspects. The first aspect is about what kinds of Buddhist Gasas, what time Buddhist Gasas were transmitted to folk society in Kyeongsangbukdo province. The second aspect is about the characteristics of Buddhist Gasa styles, and the third aspect is about the characteristics of Buddhist Gasa works. Firstly, in the aspect of what kinds of Buddhist Gasas, what time Buddhist Gasas were transmitted to folk society in Kyeongsangbukdo province. there are two kinds of Buddhist Gasas, which are the seven already discovered Buddhist Gasa works in different provence before time and the six newly discovered Buddhist Gasa works these day in Kyeongsangbukdo provence. Secondly, in the aspect of the characteristics of Buddhist Gasa styles, there are five Buddhist Gasa styles which are the repenting song Buddhist Gasa style(回心曲類佛敎歌辭), the empty dream song Buddhist Gasa style(夢幻歌類佛敎歌辭), Nirvana song Buddhist Gasa style(往生歌類佛敎歌辭), the hermitage song Buddhist Gasa style(土窟歌類佛敎歌辭), the sutra song Buddhist Gasa style(經典歌類佛敎歌辭). And then the seven already discovered Buddhist Gasa works in different provence are deeply related with former four Buddhist Gasa styles, but the six newly discovered Buddhist Gasa works these day in Kyeongsangbukdo provence are deeply related with latter one Buddhist Gasa style. Thirdly, in the aspect of the characteristics of Buddhist Gasa works, the repenting song Buddhist Gasa style(回心曲類佛敎歌辭) includes three Buddhist Gasa works which are <Hwaesimgog(회심곡)>, <Hwaesimga(회심가)>, <Begbalga(발가)>, and the empty dream song Buddhist Gasa style(夢幻歌類佛敎歌辭) includes two Buddhist Gasa works which are <Bagbalhwaesimgog(백발회심곡)>, <Bagbalga(백발가)>. Nirvana song Buddhist Gasa style(往生歌類佛敎歌辭) includes three Buddhist Gasa works which are <Gueonwangga(권왕가)> and <Geugrakga(극락가)>, <Buddhistkyonggoga(불교경고가)>. The hermitage song Buddhist Gasa style(土窟歌類佛敎歌辭) includes one Buddhist Gasa work which is <Naonghwasangnakdoga(나옹화상낙도가)>. The sutra song Buddhist Gasa style(經典歌類佛敎歌辭) includes four Buddhist Gasa works which are <Inguayagseol(인과약설)>,<Inguaeungboga(인과응보가)>,<Parentseunjungga(부모은중가)>, <Parentseungonrngga(부모은공가)>.

Even though I studied the characteristics of Buddhist Gasa which were transmitted to folk society in Kyeongsangbukdo province in three aspects. But there could be the other things to study about these kinds of theme. I might continue researching the other kinds of theme next time in the near future.
