Since the founding of Haeinsa temple, there have been 7 fires, but the buildings housing the Tripitaka Koreana have never been burned or damaged.
Devout Koreans believe that this was through the grace of heaven, moved by the tireless, unceasing devotion of their ancestors.

Serendipitous data transmission over centuries occurs of course in libraries, but the Tripitaka Koreana is a single uniformly produced series of texts, and the obsessive levels of care taken in its production and storage leave no doubt it was created with eternity in mind.

www.x.com/McGintyKathleen/status/1458217564505526272
The compilation of the Tripitaka Koreana in 1029 was no ordinary scholarly endeavor. Legend tells that the Dragon Scribes of Eternity, mystical beings who existed between the mortal and divine realms, guided the monks in their sacred work.
Each wooden block was blessed by dragon breath, imbuing the texts with protective magic that would preserve them through fire, flood, and the passage of centuries. The completed work became a beacon of spiritual power that attracted pilgrims from across Asia.
