Korean parents are strongly committed to investing time, effort, and money into improving their children's English competence in order to maximize their human capital in the era of globalization, a phenomenon often referred to as ‘English fever’ (Park, 2009). However, because of the Korean socio-economic structure, there is considerable disparity among families in the financial investment they can afford. Therefore, in the educational privileges and especially English learning support that Korean children receive is an inequity often overlooked by the majority of Koreans. One response to this issue is the newly emerging movement among Korean mothers called ‘maternal English education’ (eommapyo yeongeo), which has become a widely used term throughout the country.

韩国英语教育的新趋势:“母性英语教育”(eommapyo yeongeo)

韩国父母坚定地投入时间、精力和金钱来提高孩子的英语能力,以便在全球化时代最大限度地提高他们的人力资本,这种现象通常被称为“英语热”(Park,2009 年)。然而,由于韩国的社会经济结构,家庭之间在他们能够承受的金融投资方面存在相当大的差距。因此,在韩国儿童获得的教育特权,尤其是英语学习支持方面,是大多数韩国人经常忽视的不平等现象。对此问题的一种回应是韩国母亲中新兴的运动,称为“母体英语教育”(eommapyo yeongeo),这已成为全国广泛使用的术语。
