In this paper, in order to explore Japanese language reading books issued by the Chosun Governor-General during the Japanese rule period, we gathered information scattered in various places, including the National Central Library and the Diet Library, and gathered materials from gazettes of the Chosun Governor-General and newspaper articles of Donga Ilbo. Based on these smaterials, we classified the textbooks by time. As a result, we found that there were various schools and numerous textbooks in the secondary education level, compared to what is already known. In particular, the reason why simplified schools and practical schools, which were not regular schools, were activated was due to Japan’s colonial educational purposes of 'simplicity' and 'practical use', and it is revealed that a textbook for these schools was issued separately. In particular, it is clear that practical schools and practical training schools, as institutionalization of employment and wage discrimination by academic background, were the choice at a secondary educational level after ordinary schools in order to compensate for it. Meanwhile, in spite of the fact that the second Korean education order changed the term of lessons to six years, ordinary schools still had the four-year system in the majority of regions. Reflecting this, readers of the national language specialized in the four-year system were issued for ordinary schools. As such, it is unveiled that various textbooks were issued by Governor-General of Korea depending on the special circumstances of colonial Korea-.
