This study examined whether Korean language learners realized appropriate intonation for specific final endings functioning as burden-reduction in speaking situations. For this purpose, this study investigated how final ending intonation was conducted when final endings ‘-neunde’ and ‘-geodeun’ were utilized in order to reduce the sense of burden in the circumstances of refusal, targeting 25 Korean native speakers. Moreover, it also explored the differences in ending words intonations of 25 Chinese native speakers in the identical circumstances. The research findings were as follows. When Korean speakers spoke under the objectives of reducing the sense of burden for their listeners, they made specific transformations in sentence ending intonation which realized the intonation of ‘L/LHL’ in a decreasing tone. Also, the elongation phenomenon of ‘-yo’ in sentence endings was identified. However, it was found that the majority of Chinese language learners spoke their final ending intonation in an increasing (H) tone. Such phenomenon was noticeable in the case of ‘-geodeun’ in particular, and the elongation of ‘-yo’ of the sentence endings was less frequent. In these cases, miscomprehension or conflicts can be caused as the sense of burden of listeners does not decrease but increase when learners refuse something in the conversation with Korean language speakers. This study confirmed that even advanced learners had problems in speaking in proper intonation for the objective of speech. Therefore, the intonation education suitable for the goals and intentions of speech is required.
