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.

    Submission Details

    Research articles present new research findings, while review articles engage with important current debates surrounding a topic. Commentaries may take the form of addressing current events or responding to previously published works, either in Korean Studies or another venue.

    The manuscript is to be written in the English language, with the text formatted as following:

    • Maximum lengths: research articles 10,000 words; review articles 10,000 words; commentaries 2,000 words; and book reviews 1,000 words
    • Manuscript is accepted in Microsoft Word (.docx), OpenDocument Format (.odt), or Rich Text Format (.rtf)
    • Paper size US letter; margins 1-inch all around
    • Text line spacing 1.5; no spaces between paragraphs
    • Font type Times New Roman; font size 12-point; pages numbered on lower right
    • Citation is to follow the Chicago Manual of Style’s endnotes and bibliography method; endnotes are automatically numbered in the section Notes, and all cited sources are to be listed by the author in the section References
    • Korean language romanization is based on the McCune-Reischauer system, with the exception of linguistics-related manuscripts, which can use the Yale system; original Asian characters may be included in parentheses
    • Research and review article manuscripts should not have the author’s name appearing anywhere; the first page is to include the title and an abstract of 250 words

    Submission is processed through the journal’s online system, eJournal Press. Click here to go to the online submission site. New users will need to create an online profile. When submitting a manuscript, the author will be prompted to choose among the categories of “research article,” “comment,” and “book review.” Authors who are submitting a review article should choose the “research article” category. The online system will require the following items: manuscript information; author information; keywords of 5 to 7 terms; and—for research articles, review articles, and commentaries—an abstract of 250 words.

    The double-blind peer review process entails the following steps:

    1. Author submits a manuscript.
    2. Editor assigns Reviewers to the manuscript.
    3. Reviewers evaluate the manuscript.
    4. Editor drafts a decision to be sent to the Author.
     
    Once a manuscript is accepted and copy-edited, it is first published online as an Early Release Article with a digital object identifier (DOI), which is then downloadable and citable. The online articles are then published in a journal volume in the spring of each year. Any questions regarding manuscript submission may be directed to the Editor.
