Understanding Adult Immigrants' Learning in South Korea UNDERSTANDING ADULT IMMIGRANTS’ LEARNING IN SOUTH KOREA: DETERRENTS TO PARTICIPATION AND ACCULTURATIVE EXPERIENCES by JIHYUN KIM (Under the Direction of Thomas Valentine) ABSTRACT This dissertation on adult education for immigrants in South Korea consists of two independent studies shedding light on immigrants’ formal and informal learning experiences. The first study, titled Adult Immigrants’ Deterrents to Participation in Korean as a Second Language Courses, aimed to understand immigrants’ deterrents for participation in Korean language programs by finding the underlying structure of the deterrents to participation and investigating the types of immigrants depending on their reasons for nonparticipation. A new instrument with 39 items that measures adult immigrants’ deterrents to participation in South Korea was developed; in total, 267 responses were collected, and 170 complete useable responses were analyzed. A series of statistical analyses revealed that a lack of time was the most compelling reason for nonparticipation. In addition, three latent dimensions of deterrents to participation were discovered: Negative Attitudes, Social Isolation, and Competing Demands. Finally, a cluster analysis identified five distinctive groups of survey participants according to their nonparticipation reasons: Active Young Workers, Income-oriented Temporary Workers, Isolated Long-term Resisters, Integrated Professional Immigrants, and Married Residents. The second study, titled Marriage-Immigrant Filipinas’ Acculturation and Learning Experiences in Korea, is an interview-based qualitative study that aimed to understand the acculturative experiences of marriage-immigrant women in South Korea from an adult learning perspective. Filipinas, who had Korean husbands, migrated to South Korea to live with their husbands, and could speak English, were recruited for the research. Interviews with 15 Filipinas were analyzed; as a result, the stories of each of the research participants were reconstructed based on their interviews, and three common themes and 11 subthemes emerged from the constant comparison method are presented. First, marriage-immigrant Filipinas learned about the role and position of a daughter-in- law in South Korea; secondly, as mothers with foreign backgrounds, marriage-immigrant Filipinas’ motherhood had to be negotiated; finally, marriage-immigrant Filipinas actively engaged in developing extrafamilial support in South Korea by expanding their horizons.

Without his continued support, substantial encouragement, firm belief in my ability, strong trust in our relationship, and insightful guidance and directions on my studies, this dissertation could not have come out in the world. Tom taught me not only how to earn my doctorate, but also how to be a good researcher, a good colleague, and a good educator and, eventually, how to be a good person. Thank you, Tom, for all that you have done for me over the past decade. No doubt, this dissertation would not be completed without the sound support of my family. My beloved mom Ms. Serng Im Lee’s support and concerns eventually enabled me to finish the dissertation. My beloved father, Dr. Seong Hoi Kim, was ultimately the one who promoted the value of education and motivated me to follow his journey in academia. My sister and my best friend, Ms. Junghyun Kim, provided me with encouragement, consoles, and sympathy during my studying. Furthermore, without my mom’s and sister’s babysitting, I could not have found any time for writing. Her son and my adored nephew, Jaehoon Kim, was the best amusement of my life during my years in Athens, GA. My former boyfriend and present husband, Dr. Hyungchai Park, has been the driving force of my life since we first met in 2007. He made my lonely and monotonous life in Athens colorful and joyful and has been my best companion on my doctoral journey without ever making me feel isolated or behind. His love, support and sacrifice v enabled me to complete this accomplishment. Lastly, I owe this accomplishment to my precious little daughter, Yunna Kim Park, who has been growing well and healthy, despite her mom’s frequent outings and stress from writing. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS Page ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS .................................................................................................v LIST OF TABLES ...............................................................................................................x LIST OF FIGURES .......................................................................................................... xii CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION .............................................................................................1 Problem Statement .......................................................................................3 Purpose of the Dissertation ..........................................................................4 Structure of the Dissertation ........................................................................5 Description of the Two Research Studies ....................................................6 Significance of the Dissertation ...................................................................7 2 LITERATURE REVIEW ................................................................................10 Background and Demographics of Immigration in South Korea ..............10 Immigrants’ Challenges Living in South Korea ........................................19 Supporting the System for Adult Immigrants ............................................44 Studies on Deterrents to Educational Participation ...................................50 3 ADULT IMMIGRANTS’ DETERRENTS TO PARTICIPATION IN KOREAN AS A SECOND LANGUAGE COURSES ....................................62 Introduction ................................................................................................62 Literature Review.......................................................................................66 vii Method .......................................................................................................70 Findings......................................................................................................93 Conclusions ..............................................................................................120 4 MARRIAGE-IMMIGRANT FILIPINAS’ ACCULTURATION AND LEARNING EXPERIENCES IN SOUTH KOREA .....................................133 Introduction ..............................................................................................133 Literature Review.....................................................................................139 Methodology ............................................................................................142 Marriage-Immigrant Filipinas’ Stories ....................................................154 Cross-Case Analysis ................................................................................210 Discussions and Implications ...................................................................246 5 CONCLUSIONS............................................................................................259 Principal Findings of the Studies .............................................................259 Discussions ..............................................................................................265 Implications for Policy and Practice ........................................................271 Suggestions for Future Research .............................................................272 REFERENCES ................................................................................................................275 APPENDICES A DETERRENTS TO PARTICIPATION IDENTIFIED FROM PREVIOUS RESEARCH .................................................................................................289 B IRB APPROVAL LETTER: THE DPS SURVEY ........................................293 C RECRUITMENT FLYER OF THE DPS SURVEY .....................................295 D INFORMED CONSENT AND QUESTIONNAIRE: THE DPS STUDY ....300 viii E COMPARISON CHART OF THE TRANSLATION AND BACK- TRANSLATION..............................................................................................................348 F CORRELATION MATRIX ..........................................................................361

  • The Korean Ministry of Education, Science and Technology All MEST Up?
    The Korean Ministry of Education, Science and Technology All MEST up? Joseph Mondello Global Leadership and Organization Professor Dongjae Kim December 15, 2008 Overview For historical, social and cultural reasons, education holds a special position in Korean society. A rigorous education, marked by years of single-minded study tested in the crucible of a life-changing, all-encompassing examination has been a rite of passage for the high-bred Korean for centuries. Since the advent of the Republic of Korea education has retained its central role in society while gaining a new significance as a means of social mobility through universal education and a perceived meritocracy brought about by the focus on standardized testing. At the same time, questions related to education have been applied to the other pressing issues of this modern nation. Two modern strains of thought have been especially influential on the development of the modern South Korean education system. The first of these is South Korean society's the emphasis on codifying Koreanness, fairness and, in recent years, balanced regional development. The other is the focus on development, progress, and the development of South Korea as a leading nation with world-class institutions and human resources. No government agency better reflects the interplay of these two opposing drives than the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology. The Ministry has long been a battle ground over which the struggle between fostering the best and brightest and raising the standards of education for all has played out. In this highly politicized environment the MEST has wrestled with serving out its mission while at the same time facing uncertainty over what that mission is.

  • The English Fever in South Korea: Focusing on the Problem of Early English Education
    Journal of Education & Social Policy Vol. 2, No. 2; June 2015 The English Fever in South Korea: Focusing on the Problem of Early English Education Bok-Rae, Kim Prof. of Andong National University Department of European Culture & Tourism College of Humanities Andong-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do South Korea Abstract The English language craze in Korea has made people obsessed with English under globalization. From preschoolers to college students, all are busy studying English. Parents also make a great effort to improve their children’s English, as early as possible. Ultimately, the problem of English education is that of “constructed reality” into which the success psychology of each Korean is condensed; therefore, it must be viewed from the historical, structural, institutional, hierarchical, and cultural perspectives of Korean society. This paper presents a critical review of the English language craze in Korea from multi-perspectives. It consists of three major sections. The first section briefly discusses English fever in Korea in relation to the early English education. The second section examines some of the major driving forces behind the expansion of English education or English as a cultural capital. The final section analyses the problem of early English education and plans for its solution. Keywords: English, early education, education fever, cultural capital, globalization 1. Introduction The English language craze in South Korea has made people obsessed with English according to the logic of globalization. But the significant differences between Korean and English, particularly in sentence structure and morphology (word structure), make it hard for most Koreans to learn English. Nevertheless, Korean society has driven all to learn English, on the simple and naive assumption that anybody can master English, if they study long and hard.
