Korea Review was a monthly journal published in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It was founded by Philip Jaisohn (Soh Jaipil) in 1919 and published by the Korean Students League of America alongside the Korean Information Bureau. The journal was printed in English to inform Americans about the Korean independence movement. "Korea Review" was also the titled of a journal published in Korea by American Homer Hulbert from 1901-1906.[1] As Philip Jaisohn and Homer Hulbert were friends, it is likely that Jaisohn titled his 1919 publication as an homage to Hulbert.
Korea Review ceased publication in 1922, just a few years after its formation. However, its campaign to win support for Korean independence succeeded in strengthening organizations like the League of Friends of Korea and in bringing Japanese aggression to the attention of American politicians.[2]
