A Needs Analysis of Foreign Learners of Korean for Korean Literature Class

The purpose of this study is to investigate the needs of foreign learners of Korean for Korean literature classes. In second language education, literary work has been recognized as good teaching resources, showing cultural abundancy. The enhanced necessity of literary education in the context of Korean as a foreign language has been expanded since it was first implemented in the late 1990s. However, the aspects in literary education vary depending on the curriculum of institutions. Thus, as the groundwork, it is very important to grasp the needs of learners in order to introduce and develop Korean literature classes. For this reason, a specific needs analysis of advanced learners for a Korean literature class was conducted with a focus on the native or Korean literary experience and preferred literary genres. The results showed several implications related to Korean literature classes. On the basis of the results of the survey, this study suggests considerations to take into account in developing Korean literature classes. (Kyung Hee University)
