ABSTRACT

This study analyzed the topics after moments of silence after the first conversation between the pairs of a Korean woman and a Japanese man and the pairs of a Korean man and a Japanese woman. The differences in the way of continuing dialogue by Korean men and women learners were identified by analyzing which topic advanced Japanese learners suggested and how they overcame silence. It has been identified that Korean women overcame silence by suggesting topics in the form of asking questions to Japanese men and Korean men overcame silence by suggesting topics in the form of talking about themselves. The topics suggested by Korean women were about the past experiences of the opponent and the topics suggested by Korean men were about one's own opinions and experiences. In addition, when unfolding topics, Korean women unfolded topics by inducing speech from the opponent after using 'demanding clarification, demanding identification, and expressing emotions (expressing evaluations)' whereas Korean men unfolded topics in the form of talking about their own opinions and experiences. This study identified the gender differences in suggesting and unfolding topics after moments of silence by Korean learners.
