(Purpose) The issue of academic activities suspected of insolvency is frequently discussed. Predatory academic journals mean academic journals that operate poorly the presentation or screening process because they have a strong commercial purpose, such as income from participation fees, rather than academic development. This study aimed to compare the distribution systems and characteristics of predatory journals and open-access academic journals while attempting to confirm their relationship. (Design/methodology/approach) To achieve this goal, the study conducted a literature review on OA and predatory journals, investigated the emergence, characteristics, and policies of OA journals, defined predatory journals, and analyzed their characteristics and issues. Based on this analysis, the study identified issues within the relationship between predatory journals and OA journals. (Findings) The research findings indicated that there was no significant relationship between these two types of journals. Instead, it was concluded that the activation of open-access journal systems could potentially contribute to reducing the distribution of predatory journals. (Research implications or Originality) The reason why the number of journals suspected of insolvency is inevitably reduced as the open access journal distribution system expands is that, first, it is difficult for journals suspected of insolvency to compete in terms of economics because investments are made at the national level in the open journal system. Second, if the open access journal system returns to the previous academic ecosystem, it will be more active because journals with suspected insolvency will be in an advantageous position in many aspects. The burden of excessive performance evaluation, the researcher's attitude to go through an easy publishing process, and the lack of the right education system require more efforts to face it and correct it.
