Core Tip	This study identified the clinicopathological features of colorectal cancer (CRC) with BRAF mutation and its molecular interaction with microsatellite instability and KRAS targeting only to stage Ⅲ/Ⅳ CRCs. These molecular markers enable the classification of CRCs into meaningful subtypes for prognosis. Our data strongly support the prognostic role of BRAF mutation in Korean patients with advanced CRC.
