ÃÊ·Ï Kang, Seokhan. (2022). A longitudinal study of foreign learners pronunciation of Korean as a foreign language. The Linguistic Association of Korea Journal, 30(1), 1-21. This study investigated the role of academic level when foreign learners of Korean study its pronunciation for six months. The subjects were classified into three groups according to their academic levels (high school graduates, undergraduate students, graduate students). The four constructs of Korean pronunciation holistic evaluation, fluency, comprehensibility, and intelligibility were applied to the 26 subjects pronunciation. Five professional Korean raters assessed Korean language learners oral performance both in the 1st month and the 7th month of their Korean language training. The results are as follows: (1) holistic ratings were closely related with those of fluency and comprehensibility, (2) the groups of university students showed the fastest development, especially of fluency, (3) the more they used Korean outside of the classroom, the higher their target language pronunciation scores they achieved. Also face-to-face contact between natives and non-natives exerts a positive effect on the acquisition of a fluent Korean pronunciation. The result supports evidence that the Korean raters evaluation correlated strongly with fluency level but weakly with intelligibility level. This implies that Korean language education should focus more on explicit learning and teaching.
