Learning language in a foreign context requires some degree of learner autonomy. It calls for even more autonomy when learning a target language pronunciation. One of the ways to foster learner autonomy is by training students in the use of strategic devices that help learners to learn different aspects of pronunciation because skillful use of strategies is key to growing autonomy (Wenden 1991). However, since Pronunciation learning strategies (PLS) have received relatively little attention, the studies on PLS are limited in terms of the target language with a near exclusive focus on English (Pawlak, 2018). In addition, although researchers seem to have come to an agreement on what a reasonable goal should be for pronunciation instruction, in the view of learner autonomy, learners can set their own goals. Therefore, this article has attempted to sketch out the American KFL learners’ attitudes towards Korean pronunciation learning and their overall pattern in PLS use. Noteworthy findings were that the KFL learners’ attitudes towards learning pronunciation was highly positive, they were confined to a very limited set of PLS relying mainly on affective and cognitive strategies, and there was a significant correlation between attitudes and the PLS use.

This article examines the presentations of the Korean benefactive expression -e/a cwuta in four Korean-as-a-foreign-language textbooks and provides an account for expressing the benefactive meaning by reviewing a wide range of data considered in the literature as well as the corpus made and available by the National Institute of the Korean Language. The results of the analysis of the corpus in the spoken Korean language suggest a reconsideration of the presentations of the benefactive form in the Korean language textbooks, because it is found that there is a gap between what is conveyed in the textbooks and real-life practice.

This article examines the effects of native language (L1) phoneme inventory size and second language (L2) learning experience on adult learners’ perception of L2 sounds. Perception experiments compared the Korean vowel and coda identification accuracy of 28 English- and 28 Mandarin-speaking learners differing in their amount of university-level Korean language experience. The results showed that the English-speaking learners, whose L1 has a rich vowel and coda inventory, were better at identifying both Korean vowels and coda consonants compared to the Mandarin-speaking learners, who have a relatively small L1 vowel and coda inventory. These findings suggest that learners with a larger phoneme inventory have an advantage in the perception of L2 segments. In the case of L2 experience, results from segment identification tasks were less conclusive. Learners who had more L2 experience (i.e., more experience with the Korean language at a university level) performed better only in the vowel identification task compared to learners with less L2 experience. Results also showed no significant difference between more experienced versus less experienced learners in the case of coda identification. These outcomes indicate that learners’ L2 identification accuracy is influenced by the amount of their L2 experience but the presence and degree of this effect can differ depending on the type of L2 segment regardless of L1.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the majority of U.S. universities transitioned from face-to-face classes to remote classes after March 2020. Despite this sudden transition, the number of students taking Korean language courses online increased. Many attribute this surge in Korean language learners to the spread of Korean popular culture and the influence of Hallyu (Korean Wave). This article examines the experiences and motivations of 14 non-Korean heritage language (non-KHL) learners who took online Korean language courses at a U.S. university after March 2020, using participants’ written responses and interviews. This study’s findings suggest that a desire to connect with Korean people and culture influenced non-KHL learners to initiate Korean language learning. Results also showed that learners’ orientations and motivations were complex, as they overlapped and emerged simultaneously. Additionally, participants reported the benefits and challenges of learning Korean online, pointing out the importance of the teacher, learner autonomy, and Korean popular culture as factors that influenced their learning journeys and helped sustain their motivation of language learning. These findings suggest a need to further explore the diversity of Korean language learners, learner motivations, and how various aspects of Korean culture interplay in the process of Korean language learning.
