This book was created to help beginners learn Korean as a foreign language learn about 1,500 vocabulary words they need to know.
In Korean language as a foreign language, vocabulary education is a fundamental field that must be completed before phonemic or grammar education.
And in order for vocabulary education to be carried out properly, there must be a thorough analysis of what kind of vocabulary learners of Korean need at each level.
However, the current vocabulary teaching materials are not very diverse, and even those that are available are created without a precise analysis of the vocabulary needed for each level.

This book is the first fruit of these reflections.
I had students majoring in Korean language education as a foreign language divide up the research, and I would supplement and organize the final work.
We extracted beginner vocabulary from almost all previously published Korean language textbooks (22 types, approximately 50 volumes) and TOPIK exam questions (from the 2nd to the 24th).
This time, I didn't just look at the textbook index, but analyzed the text to find all the vocabulary.
Among the found vocabulary words, those that were used more than 25 times were selected as the headings for this textbook.
Of course, in the case of verbs, the basic form was presented.
