Abstract
On February 7, 2014, The Korean Journal of Internal Medicine (KJIM) received a letter from Thomson Reuters indicating its acceptance into the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE) list of journals. It has been 28 years since the founding of the KJIM, and 7 years since preparations for its registration into the SCIE began in earnest. Herein, I have summarized the evolution process of the KJIM over the course of these preparations, in the hope that it will be of some help to other associations looking at developing journals with a global reach.
