(4) Applying for Publication Charge (PC) waivers
Authors whose manuscript is accepted for publication in JKPS can apply for PC waivers. To apply for an APC waiver, please fill out and submit the PC waiver application form (can be downloaded here: [Application Form for Waiver of Article Publication Charge]) to [jkps@kps.or.kr].
We will consider manuscripts as first priority whose first or corresponding authors are based in countries classified as lowincome or lower-middle-income economies by the World Bank [https://datahelpdesk.worldbank.org/knowledgebase/articles/906519].
Any author who are in need of APC waiver can also apply. The decision will be made in monthly basis by the executive editorial board.
