A comprehensive review of research in Korean language education with the aim of establishing an academic field has thus far not been executed, though Korean as a second language has been taught in an organized fashion for over 40 years. A thorough review of the previous research on Korean language education will assist in harmonizing theory with practice. This study will analyse previous research on Korean language education in order to establish an academic field. About 720 studies on Korean language education published in the journals related to Korean language education as well as academic dissertations made up this study. The research was analysed based on three variables: chronology, type, and topic. There was a total of 10 academic categories for topics.
