중국 대학의 한국어학과에서 학생들의 한국어 습득 양상에 대한 문화기술적 연구

An Ethnographic Study on Chinese Students’ Learning Korean Language in Korean Language Department at Chinese University

The findings of the study with a focus on cultural themes can be summarized as follows: 1. In terms of Korean language education programs and their overall curriculum, diverse recruitment methods and ranks of the programs have been identified as major themes. An ideologically double-layered academic structure was also found in the process of implementing the curriculum, which seems to be connected to China’s structural characteristics of its being a socialist country in politics and being a capitalist in economics. 2. An investigation into the faculty composition of the department reveals “psychologically dual citizens” and “happens-to-be native speakers of Korean.” “Psychologically dual citizens” represent an emotional status of ethnically Korean professors with Chinese citizenship. “Happens-to-be native speakers of Korean” are those who have chosen to teach abroad. Accordingly, the language used inside the department is a mixture of three languages: Korean, Chosun Language used in North Korea, and Yonbyon dialects- Korean language used in Yonbyon, China-.
