Objective of this information is that providing basic academic information of Korean astronomers who are conducting their research in foreign countries. I start this page largely based on the previous list from Dr. Im, and update information by your inputs. Therefore, it will be underconstruction forever. I hope this page can help
Note : Please visit our new facebook group
For some cases, only partial information is available. For those who wants their information be complete, please send additional information to me at korastro at hotmail.com. In particular, I hope each person provides his/her research topic and this page can be useful for sharing his/her science.
