The 11th revision the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD) is new classification system suitable for the pace of development of modern technology. Computerization and ontology-based design are expected to be highly scalable and interoperable in inte- gration and connection with other classification systems. However, when introduced in Korea, structural changes are feared to interfere with the linkage between disease codes. This study briefly introduced ICD-11 and examined related literature and mapping case trends. The interest in ICD-11 in Korea was lower than in other countries, and tend to pay attention to socio-economic repercussions. Research was mainly conducted focusing on ‘Chapter 2 Neoplasms’ and ‘Chapter 6 Mental, behavioural or neurodevelopmental disorders’. Through a mapping case study, it was confirmed that ICD-11 is a highly useful classification system, and guidance on post-coordination, such as the sequence and criteria of the expansion code, is needed. Proper preparation is required until ICD-11 is officially implemented in Korea. The role of the government is important at all stages from the introduction to maintenance of ICD-11, and efforts and attention to adaptation of all classified users in the health care industry are needed.
