초록

Based on the theoretical framework of language planning, this paper unpacked aspects of language ideology in the Peace Corps/Korea program between 1966 and 1981 using a mixed method. It explored why and how the Peace Corps participated in committing to English program in general and communicative/spoken English in particular in terms of three types of language planning: status planning, acquisition planning and corpus planning. Though the Korean government and the Peace Corps agreed upon the general direction of the program in Korea, it was unveiled that they put more emphasis on status planning than acquisition planning or corpus planning depending on their own different agendas of English education. Despite their different perspectives on English, it was indeed true that English indexed modernization as one of the main goals of status planning. The overall language planning implemented by the Peace Corps (re)generated several English language ideologies, which later laid the groundwork for the societal phenomenon in Korea referred to as English Fever.

Abstract

Based on the theoretical framework of language planning, this paper unpacked aspects of language ideology in the Peace Corps/Korea program between 1966 and 1981 using a mixed method. It explored why and how the Peace Corps participated in committing to English program in general and communicative/spoken English in particular in terms of three types of language planning: status planning, acquisition planning and corpus planning. Though the Korean government and the Peace Corps agreed upon the general direction of the program in Korea, it was unveiled that they put more emphasis on status planning than acquisition planning or corpus planning depending on their own different agendas of English education. Despite their different perspectives on English, it was indeed true that English indexed modernization as one of the main goals of status planning. The overall language planning implemented by the Peace Corps (re)generated several English language ideologies, which later laid the groundwork for the societal phenomenon in Korea referred to as English Fever.
