The Korean Case for Youth Language Learning is a collection of chapters which address the complexities at the intersection of Korean language learning, the global popularity of Korean culture, and Generation Z learners' characteristics.

The chapters included in this volume portray learning contexts spread across five continents and adopt a wide array of research methodologies, including but not limited to thematic analysis, discourse analysis, and Q methodology, to touch on important topics such as policy and curricular constraints, pedagogical approaches, and Generation Z language learners' identity, motivation, and emotions. This volume serves as a springboard for further policy-focused, pedagogical, and empirical investigations into what the local setting, in terms of socio-cultural environment and educational infrastructure, brings into young learners' experience of learning the Korean language.

This book is a valuable guide for global teachers of Korean who seek to understand learners' behaviour and preferences in the K-wave era, as well as policymakers within language learning education.
