Of the minor entries, many are English translations from the Encyclopaedia of Korean Culture (Han’guk munhwa taepaeggwa sajon) and relevant Japanese and Chinese sources. The contributors' names are recorded in the ‘List of Contributors and Translators’ and also at the end of the entry itself, complete with bibliographical references for further reading.
