It is well known that island vioations are ameliorated in English sluicing. Merchant (2001) argues that ellipsis at PF can repair island vioations and thus the amelioration effect arises. However, matrix sluicing in Korean is island-sensitive. This paper argues that the island sensitivity arises because the wh-phrase in this environment does not move to CP in overt syntax. This results in a violation of Parallelism (Fiengo and May 1994, Fox and Lasnik 2003). The proposed analysis also accounts fot the contrast between matrix sluicing and fragment answers in Korean with respect to island sensitivity.
