Chikungunya is caused by an arbovirus transmitted by Aedes mosquito vector. With the increase of habitat of mosquito by globalwarming and frequent international travel and interchange, chikungunya reemerged and showed global distribution recently. Until now there has not been reported any case infected with chikungunya virus in Korea. A 23-year-old man has been the Republicof the Philippines for 1 week, and visited our emergency center due to fever and back pain. Chikungunya viral infectionwas diagnosed by specific IgM for chickungunya virus by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assayin Korea Centers for DiseaseControl and Prevention. His clinical course was self limited. We introduce the first imported case infected with chikungunyavirus in Korea.

A 23-year-old man has been the Republicof the Philippines for 1 week, and visited our emergency center due to fever and back pain. Chikungunya viral infectionwas diagnosed by specific IgM for chickungunya virus by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assayin Korea Centers for DiseaseControl and Prevention. His clinical course was self limited. We introduce the first imported case infected with chikungunyavirus in Korea.
