Abstract
We analyzed the publication and submission statuses of Korean medical journals from 2010 to 2024, amidst challenges impacting researchers. Data from 58 domestic journals identified through the 2023 JCR database were used to assess publication status, while data from the Journal of Korean Medical Science (JKMS) were utilized to examine submission status. The proportion of published original articles by domestic authors decreased by 3% in 2024 compared to 2023. Submissions to JKMS also decreased overall, except for slight increases in May and October 2024. In contrast, international submissions to JKMS showed consistent growth, surpassing the 15-year average, reflecting growing global interest. Addressing issues, including medical school admission policies and the lingering effects of coronavirus disease 2019, is vital to ensure a sustainable and thriving medical research environment in Korea.
