This article investigates the time-related morphological units, such as tense, mood, and aspect, in Korean embedded clauses, and their morpho-syntactic relations. We claim that modality is dependent on tense within TP by sharing temporal features (e.g., [+anterior] and [+posterior]) with the tense marker (e.g. -ess), and modality also shares the same position in a predicate with the tense marker, whe18reas mood is projected to MP (Mood Phrase) headed by clause-final morphemes (e.g., ta, ca, or la). Adopting Vendler’s (1967) predicate types, Chomsky’s (1999, 2001) Probe-Goal approach, and Ura’s (2006) analysis of the aspect-related feature, we suggest that lexical aspect manifests the projection of the two types of Aspectual Phrases (e.g., AspP with [u Stative] or [Dynamic]) between vP and TP. This study demonstrates specified temporal properties in the Korean language by exhibiting semantically, morphologically, and syntactically motivated multi-layered Functional Categories such as [CP[MP[TP[AspP]]]] in overt syntax.
