Korean Language and Literature

Nowadays, when Korean language education is expanding into fields such as structural research and analysis of technique, we not only use our language to compose many kinds of works but also to promote the Korean national self-image through literary appreciation and criticism. The Department of Korean Language and Literature has three major fields of study -- Korean language, classical literature, and contemporary literature. Language students learn about the structure of the Korean language and its particular characteristics. We study our language using scientific methods in order to promote better daily language use. Furthermore, we investigate Korean language trends. Students of classical literature study ancient and modern works. We understand and appreciate the thoughts of our ancestors and get wisdom from their works. Contemporary literature students read the works of writers of the period after the modern Korean age. All of these works display present-day Korean feelings.
