until recently I found the following sentence in the dictionary. " I did't know that until recently" It's 「最近まで知らなかった」in Japanese. Can "recently" be used after "until", although "recently" is adverb?

In this sentence "recently" isn't used as an adverb. It is used as a point in time, similar to 'now'. It is used the same as these sentences: "I didn't know that until March 1, 2013...." "I didn't know that until yesterday....." "I didn't know that until now....." "I didn't know that until last month..." "I didn't know that until recent time....."

Of course! The writers of a dictionary are going to proof-read their writings better than any other book.
