The purpose of this paper is to investigate the comparative constructions in English and Korean in terms of two basic semantic distinctions. First the distinction between individual comparison and degree comparison is reviewed. It is claimed that the distinction is useful for the explanation of English comparatives. For Korean comparatives, however, the notion of individual comparison plays an important role in explaining phrasal and clausal comparatives, but sometimes the notion of degree comparison is also needed. Second, the distinction between implicit and explicit comparison is reviewed, and it is claimed that the distinction is useful in explaining the syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic differences in the two types of comparison, while for Korean comparatives the distinction is not so useful for the syntactic analysis as well as for the explanation for semantic and pragmatic differences. To conclude, there are common properties in the formation of comparatives in English and Korean, but there are also some differences in the use of some semantic distinctions for English and Korean comparatives
