AB - The essay considers several issues relevant to narrating the conceptualhistory of ‘gugeo’ (國語, Korean Language/National Language) as part ofan advanced work. From examining its definitions in the Standard KoreanLanguage Dictionary and the provisions of the Framework Act on theNational Language (Law No. 7368), it is noted that the concept of ‘gugeo’encompasses various implications like ‘official language,’ ‘nationalization,’‘national characteristics,’ ‘Korean alphabet,’ and ‘regional characteristics.’To confirm its status as a basic concept in a modern sense, the essayexamines whether ‘gugeo’ has undergone the four categories of conceptual changeintroduced by Reinhart Koselleck, that is, Democratization (Demokratisierung),Temporalization (Verzeitlichung), Ideologization (Ideologisierung), andPoliticization (Politisierung). The essay reveals that ‘gugeo’ had gonethrough or had been going through all these changes in the period before1910, when the Korean modern transition was underway.
Finally, after stressing the fact that the national awareness of ‘Hanguel’,the character system of the Korean language, has accelerated the modernconceptualization of ‘gugeo’, the essay presents the need for further studieson this issue.
