In 1894 (the twentieth year of the Guangxu era), military conflict between China and Japan broke out over the suzerainty of the Korean Peninsula. The Qing government lost, and signed the Treaty of Shimonoseki in the following year, ceding Taiwan, the Pescadores and all appertaining islands to Japan. These territories were subsequently returned following the Japanese surrender in 1945, marking the end of the 51-year Japanese Colonial Period. The management of Taiwanese religious affairs by the Japanese Government-General of Taiwan had three phases: tolerance, reform, and control. The Kominka Movement was part of the third phase, and influenced Yangmei area seriously. This study investigates how the Hakka Bak-Gong shrine and belief were thereby affected. Research methods comprised of literature review, field survey, and interview of the elderly. The findings are as follows: 1) The Temple Restructuring Movement, part of the Kominka Movement, only occurred in Shinchiku-shu, Chureki-gun, and their surrounding regions| 2) the Government-General's main aim in the Temple Restructuring Movement was the seizing of temple assets| 3) Despite the massive removal of Bak-Gong idols and the demolition of their shrines during the late Japanese Colonial Period, the Yangmei area Bak-Gong belief continues to exist.| 4) The four Da-Bak-Gong of the Gaoshanding area have the attributive da (big) to denote that their shrine structure is more extensive than that of other Bak-Gong shrines. |
