The rare kaon decay, KL → π0νν, is considered as an ideal process for understanding the origin of CP violation and a critical test for the standard model. The KEK-PS E391a is the first dedicated experiment to search for the decay. It employs two main concepts - a pencil beam and a hermetic photon veto system in a highly evacuated decay region. The experiment started data taking in February 2004 aiming at improving the current experimental limit by three orders of magnitude. The E391a is a pilot experiment for higher sensitivity at the new 50-GeV proton synchrotron in Japan (J-PARC) currently under construction. Using feedback from the E391a, an experiment with a sensitivity better than 10-13, in which we expect to observe more than 100 events based on the standard model expectation, will be performed. In this report, the experimental principles and current status of data analysis are presented.
