The Korea Citation Index (KCI, 한국학술지인용색인) is a non-commercial South Korean citation index operated by the National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF, 한국연구재단). Though it mainly covers researches written in Korean language, some of English language journals are also indexed in KCI. Established in 2007, KCI covers selected South Korean journals and their researches published from year 2004. KCI indexed journals are reported to respond faster than SCI and SSCI indexed journals. KCI is directly linked to 'Korea Researcher Information' (한국연구자정보), an unified national database for each researcher's personal data in South Korea, since KCI was designed to more precisely evaluate research competency of each South Korean universities. Researches written in Korean language cannot be evaluated appropriately under English language oriented global indices (such as Impact factor). More information...
