This article examines the structure of the Korean Society for Journalism and Communication Studies (KSJCS) and the International Communication Asso-ciation (ICA) based on the division membership of scholars. Theoretically, hybridization as coexistence of similarities and differences between the two organizations of different cultural backgrounds were explored. Using network analysis, the study found that in the KSJCS media and journalism-related divisions formed the nucleus of the communication discipline, and that two dimensions, ‘humanities vs. social science’ and ‘interpersonal vs. mediated communication,’ constituted the ICA. Suggestions for future research were addressed.
