In this paper, I first show that free word order variation in Korean cannot be properly dealt with by the SOV hypothesis with a head-final structure which has been uniformly assumed in Korean syntax. Then I demonstrate that it can best be accounted for by the SVO hypothesis with a head-first structure. This result may indicate that SOV is not a basic underlying word order for Korean but that SVO actually is, although it appears true that current Korean by and large exhibits SOV properties. Some positive consequences of the result are also explored: exclusion of the analyses involving suspicious rightward movement, PF stylistic rearrangement, afterthought; elimination of the head-parameter, maintenance of the LCA (Linear Correspondence Axiom, Kayne 1994), thereby capturing the restrictive correlation between syntactic phrase marker and word order in PF. Most of all, the obtained result that languages like Korean regarded as SOV starts with SVO enables us to begin to maintain the basic word order of SVO universally.
Abstract

Most of all, the obtained result that languages like Korean regarded as SOV starts with SVO enables us to begin to maintain the basic word order of SVO universally.
