This study aims to examine Korean college students' perceptions about native and non-native English speaking professors. For this purpose, 239 students participated in the study. In terms of nationality, students have the highest preference for native English speaking professors from English speaking nations. An understanding of Korean language and culture, as well as English education related majors were regarded as significant qualifications for native English speaking professors in Korea. In terms of teaching areas, native English speaking professors received the highest scores in the areas of English pronunciation teaching, conversation teaching and evaluation. Korean English professors got the highest scores in the areas of English grammar teaching and evaluation, and English learning strategies. Based on the results, the necessity of collaboration or team-teaching was emphasized for pedagogical implications.
