That's a big question. I honestly am not 100% certain. I know that the former (+ㅁ) is rarely used in spoken Korean. When you turn a verb into a noun form and use it as a subject or an object in a sentence, the latter is most often used. The former is more seen in archaic, or literary text. Hope someone else corrects me.
