In this paper, we explore the dynamics of quantum correlation for two circularly accelerated atoms interacting with a bath of fluctuating massless scalar field with a reflecting plane boundary. First, we derive the master equation that governs the system evolution. Then we analyze the behaviors of quantum correlation for various conditions and compare the behaviors of quantum correlation with that of the static atoms immersed in a thermal bath with a boundary. It is found that the dynamics of quantum correlation for circularly accelerated atoms present some features distinct from those of static atoms immersed in a thermal bath.
