  The Korean language is receiving growing attention on the international stage. This is evident in the increasing number of Korean educational institutions and the growing number of registrants for Korean language proficiency tests. Foreign residents in Korea are no exception. Domestic language schools are so busy that it can at times be hard to reserve a seat. Some foreigners team up to share their language-learning strategies. Among them is Michael Elliott, who has been hard at work learning Korean since long before it was a fad and is now mentoring beginners. He shared his Korean love story with Korea.net,...More

  The 2040 generation, which refers to young people in their 20s, 30s, and 40s, is emerging as a significant political, social and cultural demographic in Korea today (Photo: Weekly Gonggam). Faced with uncertain prospects birthed by the worldwide trend of the jobless economic recovery, the younger generations of Korea have redefined themselves as a politically and socially potent demographic. A 2010 opinion poll conducted by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism of 1,000 young people in their 20s found that the primary issue of concern among respondents was employment. Following with these developments, the term "2040 generation" has emerged not only as a buzzword in Korean media and social commentary but also a theme of contemporary culture. The unprecedented turnout of "2040" voters in the recent 2011 Seoul mayoral election, in particular, was seen as an effort by younger generations to engage the wider society in a much-needed dialogue on their needs,...More
