No.  Our license to distribute McIDAS-X/-XCD is, however, limited to
educational institutions.  Please confirm that your institution,
Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology, is a degree granting
institution of higher education.  As soon as this is confirmed,
we will add you to the list of sites that are allowed to download
our distribution of McIDAS.

> Or any other websites can obtain this software?

If your institution is _not_ a educational institution, you will need
to get McIDAS directly from the owners/authors of McIDAS, the Space Science
and Engineering Center (SSEC) of the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
The email you should use to contact SSEC -- if you are not an educational
institution -- is address@hidden.
