This paper examines the Korean discourse connective -nuntey, proposing that it encodes procedural meaning and marks the clause it attaches to as not-at-issue. Drawing on Carston's (2016) diagnostics for procedural expressions, and the projectivity taxonomy of Tonhauser et al. (2013) tests for not-at-issueness, the study combines theoretical analysis with evidence from a small-scale elicitation survey involving four native Korean speakers. The results suggest that -nuntey consistently patterns with markers that convey backgrounded, non-truth-conditional information, guiding the hearer to infer a contextual relation between the -nuntey clause and the host utterance. This account unifies utterance-medial and utterance-final uses within a single Relevance-Theoretic framework, providing a more principled explanation of its discourse-pragmatic function. The paper concludes by suggesting directions for future research, including broader empirical testing and comparative analysis of related connectives such as -ciman and -killay. Overall, the findings contribute to a deeper understanding of procedural meaning and the ways in which Korean discourse connectives encode not-at-issue content.
