국외 한국어 학습자의 동기 및 탈동기 연구 -베트남 대학의 한국어 학습자를 중심으로-

Abstract

This study investigates the motivations, demotivating factors, and strategies for overcoming demotivation among Vietnamese university students majoring in Korean. The results indicate that motivations for learning Korean include interest in Korean culture and language, future prospects, and career aspirations, reflecting a mix of intrinsic and extrinsic influences. Demotivating factors primarily include the difficulty of learning Korean, comparisons with others, excessive study load, and low grades. To overcome these demotivations, the most effective strategy was recognizing the necessity and importance of learning Korean, followed by engaging in hobby activities, counseling, and taking breaks. These findings highlight the need for effective teaching methods and learning support, as well as the provision of cultural education and practical training opportunities to encourage student participation.
