This paper deals with the problem of noun classification and subject honorification in Korean. In particular, it tries to provide a support for the syntactic approaches to subject honorification based on Park’s (1975) seminal work on the nature of honorific nominals. By giving some convincing evidence that shows Ф-features, especially gender features, are crucial factors determining the class of a given noun, this paper opens a way to accommodate subject honorification in the framework of generative grammar.
