Manuscript Editing for Journal of Korean Religions Articles
Founded in 2010, the Journal of Korean Religions describes itself as the only English-language academic journal dedicated to the study of Korean religions. It publishes peer-reviewed research from across the humanities and social sciences on all aspects of the subject. The University of Hawai'i Press publishes it twice a year, and it is edited at the Institute for the Study of Religion, Sogang University in Seoul.
Articles run under 10,000 words including endnotes, with the bibliography and appendices extra. Review articles run under 3,000 words and book reviews up to 1,000. Citations follow the latest Chicago Manual of Style, author-date, and endnotes carry supplementary information only. Non-English book and article titles carry English translations. Korean follows McCune-Reischauer or Revised Romanization consistently, with Hepburn for Japanese and Pinyin for Chinese. Each submission includes a cover sheet, an anonymized first page, a 200-word abstract, five keywords, and a 100-word biographical note. Editorial review comes first, followed by double-blind review by two readers. Material AI use is disclosed on the journal's AI Declaration Form. Off the Grid Editing applies one romanization system throughout and sets the references in Chicago author-date. Submissions go by email to the managing editor as Word attachments.

Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for the Journal of Korean Religions
We offer three levels of manuscript editing depending on what your manuscript needs. Each is described below so you can choose the service that fits where your draft is right now.
Grammar and usage, awkward phrasing, repetition, and passive voice corrected, then clarity, concision, sentence structure, transitions, and tone, with your style manual applied throughout and a final proofread. For authors whose argument and structure are settled.
Clarity, emphasis, and paragraph structure: topic sentences, transitions, and sentences reordered within a paragraph, with every fact and claim kept as you wrote it. Includes copy editing and a final proofread.
Spelling, punctuation, typos, capitalization, grammar, and usage corrected with minimal wording changes, for manuscripts that have been edited and need a last check before submission to Journal of Korean Religions.
The journal's submission guidelines cover length, romanization, and required components. If you have reviewer comments from an earlier submission, send them with your manuscript and we will address each one. If you have questions about which service is right for your manuscript, contact us directly. We respond to every inquiry the same day during business hours.
Academic proofreading is the last read before submission, and journal article and essay editing covers scholarship on East Asian religions. If English is your second language, see English language editing for researchers. We also prepare articles for Studies in Chinese Religions and the Japanese Journal of Religious Studies.
