The purpose of this paper is to explain the behavior of quantifiers and NPI licensing in Korean Negation ‘an’ and ‘anh’. The main assumption is that ‘anh’ in LFN projects the NegP and ‘an’ in SFN occupies the [Spec, NegP] position like French negation. I suggest that the SFN ‘an’ is a negative adverbial prefix occupying [Spec, NegP] and the LFN ‘anh’ is a negative verbal head, projecting NegP. In SFN, I assume that ‘an’ in [Spec, NegP] is responsible for the scope relationship with quantifiers, and the head of NegP, ‘anh’ is responsible for licensing NPIs. In LFN, I assume that ‘an’ in [Spec, NegP] is a null category. The null negative adverb, ‘an’ adjoins to any syntactic position marking the scope of negation in relation to quantifiers. In conclusion, I analyse that ‘an’ is a scope marker and ‘anh’ is a NPI lincenser.
