Online language learning platform ‘Preply’ analyzes the global trend of Korean language learning.
A 49% increase in Korean language learners over the past year… Interest in Korean culture leads to Korean language learning.
Online language platform Preply conducted a survey on the Korean language learning craze and released the results.
According to Preply's survey, the number of Korean language students taking Korean language lessons has increased by 49% over the past year due to the surge in popularity of Korean culture worldwide. This is 9% higher than the average annual growth rate of other languages. Notably, the number of Korean language learners in Europe has seen a significant increase of 68%.
The primary reason for learning Korean was ‘hobby’. While 28% of those learning general foreign languages do so for career development or self-improvement, Korean learners primarily choose ‘hobby’ as their main motivation for learning the language. This indicates that interest in Korean culture is driving individuals to learn Korean.
Indeed, Google Trends reveals a significant increase in searches for Korean dramas and K-pop across various countries. Over the past 10 years, searches for the keyword ‘K-pop’ have surged by 462.5%, and searches for ‘K-drama’ have risen by 48%. Specifically, the period between 2005 and 2015 witnessed a remarkable surge of 742%. Various countries, including Taiwan, the Philippines, Indonesia, Kyrgyzstan, Vietnam, India, and the United States, have shown a keen interest in Korean dramas.
Silvia, a Korean tutor at Preply, commented, “The appeal of Korean language classes stems from the cultural influence of K-pop and K-drama, providing a unique and enjoyable learning experience.” She added, “Cultural interest serves as a great motivator and tool for language learning.”
Preply is an online language learning platform that offers 1:1 native speaker video English lessons and other language classes, including Japanese tutoring, Chinese tutoring, and more, allowing learners to access a wide range of languages from around the world.
