Aims & Scope

The Review of Korean Studies is a peer-reviewed, academic journal published in English by the Academy of Korean Studies. Its goal is to stimulate dialogue and exchange ideas, theories, and perspectives among Koreanists in both Asia and the West, by publishing cutting-edge articles in all subfields of Korean Studies. Especially, we welcome research articles on premodern Korean Studies which have been less discussed and introduced in the Korean Studies field.
