The aim of this paper is to consider the outcome of research conducted in the area of Korean language education related to the topic of a multicultural society. Many practical research such as textbooks and language functions(speaking, listening, reading, and writing) are found. Acquisition of Korean language, interlanguage, knowledge about Korean language (including pronunciation and grammar) are rarely found. This is one of the biggest differences compared to general purpose Korean. It may be the reason that research in Korean language education related to a multicultural society have been conducted to meet the needs and necessity of the actual spots. Research related to the kids from multicultural families has rapidly increased since 2009, and thus they have exceeded those of the mothers from multicultural families. Articles researched in universities located in the province have exceeded those from the Seoul-Gyeonggi area. Articles and theses researched in the early days mainly cover the topics related to the foothold of educational support, such as the necessity of Korean language education, the policy of Korean language education, curriculum of Korean language education, and textbook development. The research topics, from now on, have to be widened and deepened to provide the theoretical background for the enhancement of the efficiency of Korean language education. The wider and deeper research will ultimately attain the maturity of the studies of Korean language education.
