The purpose of this paper is to establish the characters and the scope of the Adverbial Clause in Korean. The characters of the Adverbial Clause are basically equal to those of Adverb in Syntax. But, because the construction of Adverbial Clause is the sentence form, it has more concrete than Adverb in meaning and can't distribute in the position of Head in Adverbial Phrase Construction. Also, Adverbial Clause has more constraints than Adverb in combining with Auxiliary-Particle. The construction and the semantic character of Adverbial Clause can show as Proposition(the content of ‘EVENT’)+{-ge(-게), -dorok(-도록, -deus(i)(-듯(이))}(the marks of Adverbial Clause deciding the class of Adverbial meaning. The marks of Adverbial Clause are defined with the final ending ‘-ke(-게), -dorok(-도록), -deus(-듯)’.
