ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to examine the Korean language education problems of North Korean defectors at school sites and analyze the factors behind their participation in Korean language classes and difficulties in class to discuss solutions. Accordingly, we analyzed the learners characteristics of the two North Korean defectors and specifically observed their participation in Korean language classes to study the Korean language education plan for North Korean defectors. As an incumbent teacher, I first met North Korean elementary school students four years ago. I became interested in North Korean defectors when I met elementary school students. While preparing for this paper, I became interested in how North Korean elementary school students can learn Korean well and adapt to the future as members of the Republic of Korea. Elementary schools are the backbone of public education. Based on his experiences in teaching North Korean students in elementary schools, which are the backbone of public education, he decided to study the factors of difficulty in Korean language classes for North Korean elementary school students, and to help improve his learning and vocabulary. Teaching Korean to North Korean defectors is not easy. Furthermore, it is not easy to teach Korean when one's father is a Chinese, and he entered Korea halfway through school in China. I think all subjects can be understood smoothly, progress quickly, class can be concentrated, and class can follow. Based on their experiences in homeroom and Korean mentoring, the researcher tried to study why North Korean defectors are not good at following Korean language classes. Though we have looked at ways to educate North Korean students for North Korean language, we need more discussions, more administrative support for education, and continued follow-up research along with various case studies.
