As major players in the global economy, Korean firms or enterprises have been playing a pivotal role in the international business arena. Their achievements in technological innovation, market expansion, and organizational management have attracted widespread attention. Chinese academics have been endeavoring to study multiple aspects of Korean corporations in-depth to analyze their successes and challenges. The purpose of this review is to systematize the current state of research on Korean firms and China-South Korea corporations in Chinese academia, to explore the characteristics and shortcomings of the existing research, and to explore the areas of concern for corporations. The article takes 78 Korean corporation research papers published in CSSCI journals in the China Knowledge Network database almost 2 decades as a sample and uses the content analysis method to analyze the research papers. These sample literature are systematically analyzed and sorted out in terms of publication year distribution, source journals, authors, funded status of the papers, keywords, specific research areas, and research methods. The results show that Chinese academics' research on Korean firms and Sino-Korean corporations has been sharply increased and slightly declined recently in a general sense. In terms of areas of interest, corporate governance, investment, and organizational culture has gained sizable attention; however, more rigorous academic efforts will be recommended. On the other hand, relatively few studies on inter-firm cooperation, corporate policy, and legal environment have been conducted. The research method is mostly qualitative research, and the authors believe that more interdisciplinary efforts and theory-based empirical research seem to be required.
