There are no screening instruments for adults in the Korean language that are specific to drugs other than alcohol and tobacco. The purpose of this study is to validate the Korean version of the Drug Abuse Screening Test-10 (DAST-10). The Korean version of the DAST-10 was validated with 1,000 adults including general adults and at-risk adults. The results indicated that the Korean version of the DAST-10 was unidimensional similar to its English-language counterpart and showed satisfactory internal consistency reliability and convergent validity. The results also showed that the Korean version demonstrated optimal performance at a cutoff score of 2, which is the same as that of its English-language counterpart. It is expected that as the development of Korean-language instruments measuring alcohol problems contributes to the expansion of related research, the development of the Korean version of the DAST-10 will facilitate research on various topics related to substance abuse in Korea. Validation with Korean adults identified as substance abusers is needed to improve the ability of the Korean version to correctly identify substance-abusing adults
