First, it investigates the influence of that the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the system of Korean language education. Second, it determines the types of interactions that have been put into practice in cases of Korean language courses that operate in a non-face-to-face manner. Third, it examines the kinds of responses exhibited by learners in Korean language classes conducted in non-face-to-face platforms. To this end, a questionnaire survey was administered.

In addition, the concept of the interaction and its catergories were accordingly established. Upon obtaining the result of the analysis in the conclusion of the thesis, several topics worthy of examination, which are related to the modality of non face-to-face Korean language class, have been suggested from the perspective of ecolinguistics.
