Korean species of the genus Cleptes Latreille were taxonomically reviewed, and seven species were confirmed. Among them, C. fudzi and C. japonicus were new to Korea, and C. metallicorpus was new to science. A C. seoulensis male was described for the first time. Cleptes nitidulus was tentatively excluded from Korean fauna. A key to Korean Cleptes species, diagnostic descriptions for all treated species and digital images are provided.
