초록

This study aims to examine the current state of Korean language education in Kenya and identify the positive effects of Korean language learning on mind healing for Kenyan Korean language learners. Unlike in other countries, the majority of Korean language learners in Kenya are motivated by hobby and interests rather than employment or academic purposes. In this study, a survey was conducted among Kenyan Korean language learners to investigate the mind healing effects of learning Korean language. The survey results confirmed that Korean language learning has a positive psychological impact and leads to transformation of values. Furthermore, it was observed that not only the teacher-led classes and learner interactions but also the self-study and cultural education contribute to the healing process. Learners who experienced these positive effects expressed willingness to recommend Korean language learning to other people for healing purposes. These results show a significant positive correlation between language learning and healing. Also provides a direction for expanding Korean language education for healing purposes. Subsequent research, involving clinical trials, could provide more definitive evidence regarding the healing effects of language learning.
