AB - This study aimed to explore pragmatic competence following to proficiency ranking of Chinese speaking learners of Korean. To meet the goal of the study, it conducted acceptability judgment test and discourse completion test to Chinese learners with ranking 3, 4, 5 and 6 in Test of Proficiency. Their results were compared to those of Korean native speakers. The study was able to draw two conclusions from the results. First, Chinese speaking learners of Korean showed unbalanced development in the process of pragmatic receptive competence and pragmatic productive competence. Second, learners’ pragmatic receptive competence developed following to their proficiency ranking; however, pragmatic productive competence did not show development following to leaners’ proficiency ranking. Although the mean of scores grew, it was not significant. Therefore, this study claimed that the unbalanced pragmatic competence must be considered in teaching Korean to Chinese learners and developing teaching materials.
