The study examines the changes and educational implications of the Korean language subject, which is considered to Confucian ideas. In the Korean language subject, traditional Confucian ideas experienced the ups and downs of severance and succession. Confucian ideas was not included from the 3rd Korean language curriculum to 2009 revised curriculum, for approximately 36 years. The reason for this is the establishment of the Chinese character in the 3rd curriculum, the orientation of Korean national culture, the change of Confucian values in East Asia, and the introduction of Western values in the process of industrialization in Korea. Then again, there will be a reason why Confucian ideas is included in the 2009 revised curriculum of the Korean, which has passed 36 years. It was the result of industrialization, which predisposes economic growth. Society has faced inhumane social problems. At this point, the restoration of humanity to tackle inhumane social issues seems to be a pressing task in institutional education. The change in educational values is also a reflection of the education of education and pragmatism. The Confucian ideas contained in the classic textbooks in 2009 differ from those contained in the second classical textbook. In the second textbook, the teachings of Confucianism are aimed at fostering moral self-discovery based on ‘filial piety’. In 2009, the focus was placed on interpreting or evaluating Confucian ideas based on ‘human nature’. In 2015, "Classics" were also selected as optional courses for 2015 revised courses to be applied to high schools. The 2015 revised curriculum applies to high schools beginning in 2018. In 2015, ‘classic reading’ was selected as an elective course. In our society, the heritage of tradition in our society is directly related to the modernization of Confucian ideas. From this point of view, the actual practice of Confucian ideas in ‘Now-Here’ presented by the 2009 revised classical textbook will be a clue to the modernization of Confucian ideas.
