This study examines how lexical variation between the Korean terms namsaek ‘navy blue’ and gonsaek ‘dark blue’ affects color category perception among Korean speakers. An experiment was conducted on dark blue perception, modeled after the blue color perception experiment designed by Winawer et al. (2007) in their Russian Blue study. The experiment consisted of three sets, each comprising60 slides, in which participants were required to distinguish between namsaek and gonsaek and choose the matching color. The outcomes were transformed into response times measured in milliseconds and analyzed via generalized linear regression analysis. Additionally, the reliability of the data was confirmed using a DNN model. The findings revealed that participants in their 50s and 70s who use the term gonsaek exhibited response times that significantly differed from those of teenage participants who do not use the term. These results are consistent with the categorical perception effect reported by Gilbert et al. (2006),which investigated the influence of lexical differences on color perception. This research contributes to our understanding of the intricate interplay between language and perception by demonstrating the effect of generational lexical differences on perceptual processes. Furthermore, by exploring lexical variation within a single language across generations, it offers a novel perspective.
