"This book, by a distinguished Korean academic and international arbitration practitioner, is a critically needed resource on international arbitration in Korea ... an essential resource on the legal framework for international arbitration in a jurisdiction of increasing significance to the international arbitral process." - Gary Born, from the Foreword to International Arbitration in Korea, "Professor Kim's book is an essential reference for anyone wishing to understand Korean jurisprudence affecting international arbitration. It is a substantial work that seems to present a highly complete picture in a single volume. The book's objective is not to give a treatise-like examination of the topics considered, but rather to supply helpful issue-framing commentary and case opinions that speak for themselves. Given this approach, the overall integrity of the book is surprisingly good: the interior arrangement of each chapter and sequencing of the case excerpts is thoughtfully and effectively undertaken and the transitional material is quite adequate to keep the reader alerted to the issue being examined." - Prof. Jack Coe, Pepperdine Law School, ICSID Review "This book, by a distinguished Korean academic and international arbitration practitioner, is a critically needed resource on international arbitration in Korea ... an essential resource on the legal framework for international arbitration in a jurisdiction of increasing significance to the international arbitral process." - Gary Born, WilmerHale, from the Foreword to International Arbitration in Korea "Authored by Joongi Kim writing from Seoul, this very readable and intriguing new title from the Oxford University Press explores with scholarly thoroughness the development and the current realities of dispute resolution in a country that in no more than fifty or so years, has raised itself from abject poverty to economic pre-eminence in a fiercely competitive global marketplace." - Elizabeth Taylor and Phillip Taylor, MBE, Richmond Green Chambers "I highly recommend Professor Kims book for any student, lawyer or arbitrator with an interest in arbitration in Korea. It is, without doubt, the most complete and comprehensive treatment in the english language of Korean case law relating to arbitration." - Benjamin Hughes, Seoul National University, Asian Dispute Review "There has been relatively little written in English on arbitration in South Korea ... this gap is now filled by Joongi Kims fascinating new book. Professor Kim has provided insightful commentary on each of the topics. Covering almost '150 cases ... the book is comprehensive ... I predict that the first edition will become a standard reference for all those involved in Korean arbitration." - Mark Goodrich, White & Case, The Law Society Gazettte. "The text is easily read and offers practitioners comprehensive commentaries on arbitration jurisprudence in one of the largest jurisdictions in Asia. KIM affords a unique understanding of the sophisticated and well-developed arbitration case of law, contributing to a better knowledge and understanding of the practice of arbitration in Korea." - Caroline Dos Santos (ASA Bulletin, March 2018), "This book, by a distinguished Korean academic and international arbitration practitioner, is a critically needed resource on international arbitration in Korea ... an essential resource on the legal framework for international arbitration in a jurisdiction of increasing significance to the international arbitral process." - Gary Born, from the Foreword to International Arbitration in Korea "Authored by Joongi Kim writing from Seoul, this very readable and intriguing new title from the Oxford University Press explores with scholarly thoroughness the development and the current realities of dispute resolution in a country that in no more than fifty or so years, has raised itself from abject poverty to economic pre-eminence in a fiercely competitive global marketplace." - Elizabeth Taylor and Phillip Taylor, MBE, Richmond Green Chambers "I highly recommend Professor Kims book for any student, lawyer or arbitrator with an interest in arbitration in Korea.

Korea has also become a key player in international arbitration, hence the pressing need for an authoritative legal text on this subject ...
