In this Issue
A leading academic journal in the field, Korean Studies publishes—generally in the spirit of the humanities and social sciences—research articles, review articles, commentaries, and book reviews on Korea-related topics, to better question and understand our world. Founded at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa’s Center for Korean Studies in 1977, the journal is published by the University of Hawai‘i Press in two forms, as annual volumes and as continuously released online articles with DOIs.
