The Korea Journal (KJ) welcomes submissions of scholarly articles or book reviews that present original research and make new contributions to the field of Korean Studies. Submitted manuscripts will be reviewed by three specialists in the discipline of the submitted paper; authors will be informed of the results of the review within six months of the date of submission. Before submitting your manuscript, please ensure you carefully read and adhere to the guidelines and instructions provided below.

Manuscripts not in adherence to these guidelines may be returned without review.

  • Manuscripts submitted to KJ should not have been published, accepted for publication, or currently under review for publication elsewhere.
