The National Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Korea (NAS) announced on July 9 that they had elected Korea University (KU) Professor Emeritus Kim In-hwan as one of its new senior members. This means that the NAS now considers Professor Emeritus Kim as a permanent member in the organization, following a strict electoral process involving more than a few qualified candidates.

Professor Emeritus Kim’s long history of academic prowess proves that new position was not for naught, with his works such as *The Principles of Criticism* and *Linguistics and Literature* being some of the most significant pieces in the fields of Korean linguistics and literature. His latest oeuvre, *The New History of Korean Literature*, in particular has been lauded as a centerpiece for solidifying the identity of Korean literature throughout history.

Furthermore, Professor Emeritus Kim has gone through multiple influential positions besides his previous position at KU. After graduating from KU with a doctorate in Korean Language and Literature, he went on to serve as the president of both the Korean Society of Literary Education and the Society of Korean Language and Literature.
