ABSTRACT

This paper analyses the meaning and use of Korean symbolic words in the headlines of newspapers. On the basis of statistics we explore semantic connections between symbolic words and their co-occurring words, i.e. collocation. We extend the existing lexical network methods in semantic research, visualizing and objectifying relations between words through their networks. The corpus which this study is based on is the Trends 21 Corpus, a corpus composed of Korean newspaper texts, comprising around 400 million morphologically analyzed words.
