As of March 2012, the number of North Korean defectors settled in South Korea is approximately 23,500.
North Korean defectors face various difficulties after entering South Korea due to language differences between North and South Korea.
Among them, they have a very difficult time due to the unfamiliar vocabulary of South Korea.
In particular, the numerous foreign words and languages ​​place a great burden on the language life of North Korean defectors.
This textbook was published to help North Korean defectors who have difficulty learning unfamiliar South Korean vocabulary.
When selecting vocabulary, we interviewed 93 North Korean defectors and received their help.
In addition, a North Korean defector verification team was formed to verify the content and practicality of the textbook, and the results of several satisfaction surveys targeting North Korean defectors were reflected in the textbook to enhance its suitability for the field.
