Japanese popular culture are transferred to Korea and created lots of new and fad words in Korean language. In this process, Japanese culture were Koreanized and absorbed as new culture by Korean. Intercultural contact creates not only new words but also increasing various thoughts and meaning in using language. A concentric circle model and logical formula were proposed to explain this phenomenon. Based on the field survey, the frequency of Japanese popular cultural contact and interest were higher for younger people. Linguistic change is caused not by itself but by the change of personal thought who is using the language. Our understanding of Japanese popular culture is expressed by language through the absorbtion of Japanese popular culture and our understanding of Japan will be improved by this linguistic change.
