A textbook of Korean history and culture covering six themes!
Thanks to the rising global interest in K-pop and K-contents, more people around the world are learning Korean than ever before. Their motivations vary from pursuing it as a hobby to engaging in research and academic studies or even advancing their careers. Whatever the interest may be, the overall number of Korean learners is growing at a noticeable pace. This phenomenon is observed in North America and Asia as well as in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand, indicating that Korean language education is gaining momentum worldwide. Also remarkable is the fact that the surge in students majoring or minoring in the Korean language is concurrent with the growing interest in Korean culture and history. In response to the enthusiasm, THE FAMOUS PEOPLE IN KOREAN HISTORY was designed to offer culture-oriented language teaching methods. It features a curated selection of historical figures organized by six themes that align with students’ interests inside and outside the classroom. Each story is chosen to enrich the learning experience of Korean learners across the world. By critically examining the historical figures’ lives and achievements, the book aims to foster a balanced perspective encompassing both a fact-based understanding of language and culture as well as historical knowledge within and outside of Korea.
“The words we use today all have historical origins. The vocabulary introduced in this book will help you improve your choice of words and sentence structure while also learning fun facts about Korean history. Our hope is that through this book, you will learn about Korean historical figures and expand your range of Korean vocabulary and sentences. Lastly, we wish that you will further cultivate a broader perspective of the world along with the Korean culture.”
