Abstract

The 2025 Journal Citation Reports (JCR) reveal that the Impact Factor (IF) for the Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society (JKNS) has risen to 1.9, an increase from 1.7 in 2024. The upward trend in the IF compared to previous years is a highly encouraging development. Although the IF of JKNS has increased, a substantial gap still remains compared to top-ranked neurosurgical journals. The time has come to set clear goals for where JKNS should head next and to explore how to reach them. While maintaining our existing strategies, we aim to consider actionable approaches to advance to the next level.
