1. 2002-2005年度，为了推进各自的研究工作，调查员在日本和韩国的各个地方进行了史料的调查和收集。2.调查员共召开了18次联合研究会议，就日本史、韩国史、韩日关系史等进行了报告和讨论。3.为了介绍研究人员的共同研究以及与首尔国立大学等韩国的日本史和韩国史研究人员的学术交流，我们于2002年8月23日至25日举行了第5至第8次韩日共同历史研究项目研讨会。2003年8月22日至24日、2004年8月20日至22日和2005年8月26日至28日（2002年和2004年在一桥大学，2003年和2005年在首尔国立大学）。韩日两国的研究者决定相继拿起日本史、韩国史和韩日关系史的重要课题，展开坦诚的讨论，以期深入了解两国史学研究的现状和问题。根据这一政策，每个专题讨论会都编写并进行了报告和讨论。4.通过研讨会，韩日两国研究者可以证实建立“东亚世界”观点和比较两国社会的方法的有效性。为了进一步推进和深化比较研究，我们计划准备联合研究“关于韩日相互认知的历史研究”。“5.由Kasuya Ken-ichi编辑，出版了第5 - 8次研讨会的报告。

1.Investigators investigated and collected historical sources at various places in Japan and Korea in order to promote each assigned research during 2002-2005 fiscal years.2.Investigators held joint research meeting 18 times, to report and discuss on Japanese History, Korean History, and the History of Korean-Japanese Relations. Investigators also held meeting 7 times, to talk over performance and review of research.3.For the presentation of investigators' joint research and scholarly interchange with researchers of Japanese History and Korean History in Korea belonging to Seoul National University and so on, we held the 5th-8th Symposium of Korea-Japan Joint Historical Research Project at 23-25 August 2002, 22-24 August 2003, 20-22 August 2004 and 26-28 August 2005 (in 2002 and 2004 at Hitotsubashi University in 2003 and 2005 at Seoul National University). Researchers of Korea and Japan decided to take up important topics in Japanese History, Korean History and the History of Korean-Japanese Relations one after another, and discuss on them frankly in order to understand deeply present situation and problems in the Historical Studies in both countries. Based on this policy, each symposiums prepared and carried out reports and discussions. The total number of reports in symposiums is 20 (Korean-12, Japan-8).4.Through symposiums, researchers of Korean and Japan could confirm the effectiveness of method, that they set up the viewpoint of "East Asia World" and compare the societies of both countries. For further promoting and deepening the comparative research, we planned to prepare the joint research of "Historical Research on mutual perceptions between Korea and Japan."5.Edited by Kasuya Ken-ichi, Reports of the 5th-8th Symposium were published.
