초록
There are mainly three types of approaches to intervention effects in Korean wh-questions: pragmatic, semantic and syntactic. The present paper argues that despite problems presented by pragmatic and semantic accounts, a syntactic approach can explain the intervention effect in Korean wh-questions best because it can logically explain why Korean speakers make different grammatical judgment as far as the intervention effect is concerned and can predict the environment where no intervention effect is observed. Judgmental variability of the intervention effect and crosslinguistic varieties of interveners have been presented against syntactic accounts; however, the present paper claims that there are two superficially identical types of wh-questions in Korean, and due to the ambiguous status, grammatical judgment of the intervention effect can differ among speakers and may fluctuate within the same speaker more markedly than other syntactic phenomena, and also shows that the kind of interveners do not differ so much as has been claimed, and that interveners are contrastive-focused as Kim (2002a, b) argues.
Abstract
There are mainly three types of approaches to intervention effects in Korean wh-questions: pragmatic, semantic and syntactic.

Judgmental variability of the intervention effect and crosslinguistic varieties of interveners have been presented against syntactic accounts; however, the present paper claims that there are two superficially identical types of wh-questions in Korean, and due to the ambiguous status, grammatical judgment of the intervention effect can differ among speakers and may fluctuate within the same speaker more markedly than other syntactic phenomena, and also shows that the kind of interveners do not differ so much as has been claimed, and that interveners are contrastive-focused as Kim (2002a, b) argues.
