[KoreanLII] Innovation in Free Access to Scholarship

When I was invited to speak at the GLIN Seoul Conference in 2010, I made a suggestion that a kind of portal introducing Korean law in English is necessary for foreigners. But no one volunteered to follow my suggestion. So four years ago I started to accumulate Wikipedia-like articles one by one by myself.

In the beginning, I thought Website guidance to the sources of Korean law in English is necessary. It would be easy to borrow English abstracts of law journals. I thought the Wiki platform must be useful to usher in collective intelligence. The reality could not meet my expectations because there are insufficient legal resources on Korean law in English. And borrowing English abstracts could be in violation of copyright. Most of all, I met with few collaborators.

I did not surrender to such difficulties. A renowned privacy scholar encouraged me to introduce Korea¡¯s data protection law in English on KoreanLII, and that started me writing substantive articles. As Steve Jobs stressed earlier ¡°Stay hungry, stay foolish¡±, I wanted to know more and more about Korean law from my specialty to other areas.

Now four years have passed and more than 11 hundred articles have been posted on KoreanLII, most of them written by me. Certainly it is not enough for KoreanLII to function as an encyclopedia.
As Managing Director of KoreanLII, I dream of a future:
1. It is useful to the research of Korea¡¯s data protection and privacy law, banking and finance, etc, and gradually becomes more comprehensive.
2. KoreanLII articles are valuable for lectures to foreign students and knowledge sharing with global readers. KoreanLII tries to give its users a ¡°big picture¡± of Korean law.
3. Its contents are entertaining because the articles include elements of storytelling and informative about Korean culture and lifestyle.
