Spiritual bypassing is the propensity to avoid emotional discomfort and pain through exercising spiritual beliefs and practices. The Spiritual Bypass Scale-13 (SBS-13) was developed to assess the two major components of spiritual bypassing – avoidance and spiritualising. The purpose of this study was to translate the SBS-13 into Korean and examine its psychometric properties. Korean adults (N = 357) living in Korea or the United States completed the Korean-translated version of the SBS-13 and demographic items. The SBS-13 was translated and back-translated and finalised. Confirmatory factor analysis results supported a two-factor model consisting of psychological avoidance and spiritualising factors. A second-order factor model that explained both psychological avoidance and spiritualising also fit well. Item-statistics and ordinal alphas were acceptable. This study provides initial psychometric evidence suggesting that spiritual bypassing is similarly structured in Korea as in other countries such as the United States, Brazil, and India
