Despite morphologically complex Korean word Eojeol has its own unique linguistic properties, the research interest related to this topic has been relatively little. Therefore, this study investigates the difference of the recognition process in the Korean Eojeol by significant lexical factors. Two main classes of this study which are used for experiment 1 and 2 are a noun Eojeol and the predicate (verb and adjective) Eojeol. The Eojeol decision task was performed for both experiments, and their reaction time was analyzed by multiple regression analysis. For the experiment 1 (noun Eojeol), the lexical factors of ‘whole Eojeol frequency’, ‘root frequency’, and ‘first syllable sharing frequency’ are predicted as the most effective predictors for the Eojeol recognition time. For experiment 2(the predicate Eojeol), by contrast, the ‘whole Eojeol frequency’ and ‘number of subjective meaning’ factors were predicted for the reaction time of the Eojeol recognition. With these results, we discussed the importance of its common and different significant lexical variables.
