Ki-Won Chang(1903-1966) is considered as the first mathematician who made a contribution to the study of the history of Korean mathematics. In this paper, we introduce contributions of Ki-Won Chang, his discovery of old Korean literatures on mathematics, and his academic contribution on the history of Korean mathematics. Then we analyze and compare his conclusions on old Korean mathematics with recent works of others. This work shows some interesting discovery.
