This paper investigates how directed motion events play out in Korean serial verb constructions(SVCs). Rappaport Hovav and Levin’s (2010) manner/result complementarity as a lexicalization constraint proposes that a single verb should lexicalize either manner or result components, but not both. Serial verb constructions are complex predicates consisting of two or more verbs but importantly express a concomitant event. Among a variety of serial verb types, this paper takes notice to only the following two types: manner + directed motion verbs and manner + result verbs. To this end, this paper examines the morphosyntactic properties of Korean SVCs and the semantic relations between the two serial verbs. It is confirmed that Korean SVCs are not lexical compounds but a monoclause. Even though not only the manner and directed motion components but also the manner and result components are readily combined in the SVCs, they do not counterexemplify the manner/result complementarity. In that serial verbs(SVs) are not the word level but above the level of the word.
