Every researcher wants their research to gain more recognition, and this desire is achieved by publishing their article in a journal with higher impact. It is very important to get researchers interested in the Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society (JKNS). Therefore, the first goal was to promote the publication of papers in our journal. To do this, a table of contents was sent out, and the citation ranking was announced every 2 months. Several efforts have been made to publish good papers. Foreign speakers, who were invited to a conference hosted by the Korean Neurosurgical Society were contacted and politely requested to write a paper addressing their recent research. Domestic and international researchers highly renowned in their fields were also contacted to submit their novel works to our journal. The journal impact factor of our journal has continued to rise for the last 3 years and reached 1.376 in 2019. It can be said that the JKNS is now competitive with other international neurosurgery journals. These achievements were not due to the efforts of the editorial boards alone. This was because our society members have submitted very good papers, and because many of our members have cited the papers published in our journal. We believe that this will continue in the future. The next step of evolution of the JKNS has begun, and this is the beginning of another great development.
每位研究人员都希望自己的研究获得更多认可，而这种愿望可通过在具有更高影响力的期刊上发表文章来实现。让研究人员对《韩国神经外科学会杂志》（JKNS）感兴趣非常重要。因此，首要目标是推动论文在我们期刊上发表。为此，我们发送了目录，并每两个月公布一次引用排名。为发表优秀论文我们做出了多项努力。我们联系了受邀参加韩国神经外科学会主办会议的外国演讲者，并礼貌地请求他们撰写一篇阐述其近期研究的论文。我们还联系了在各自领域享有盛誉的国内外研究人员，邀请他们向我们的期刊提交新作。在过去三年里，我们期刊的影响因子持续上升，2019年达到了1.376。可以说，JKNS现在已能与其他国际神经外科学期刊竞争。这些成就并非仅归功于编辑委员会的努力。这是因为我们学会的成员提交了非常优秀的论文，并且我们的许多成员引用了发表在我们期刊上的论文。我们相信这种情况在未来会持续下去。JKNS的下一步发展已经开始，这是另一个重大发展的开端。
