ABSTRACT

In these days many people in the world pay attention to Korean music and culture through the influence of the “Korean Wave” or “K-pop” which refers to the significantly increased popularity of South Korean culture around the world, advanced by multiculturalism. However, it is not easy to find Korean music outside the country for classroom use and the lack of teaching materials may lead the music educators to teach without the fundamental musical understanding. Therefore the purpose of this study is to develop Korean music materials for foreign students outside the country. For this, Spotlight on Music Gr.3-6 which are the representative music text books published in the United States were analyzed to diagnose the use of Korean music materials. In addition, this study introduced one of the most famous Korean folk tunes, ‘bird, bird blue bird’ in different levels and types with teaching tips to incorporate multicultural experiences in their general music classes.
