The present study deals with the teacher factor in Korean grammar teaching, and its main purpose is to examine the practical problems relating to setting an ideal status of ‘Korean grammar teacher’ and suggest necessary tasks to overcome them. First, the study investigates why the teacher factor matters by reviewing the socio-political context surrounding Korean grammar teaching. Under the current situation where, theoretically, the portion of Korean grammar teaching is minute and insignificant, we should persuade multitude numbers of Korean language teachers to perform their grammar teaching adequately in the classroom. Luckly, the research on the teacher factor in the field of grammar teaching has been well specified and documented, and the volume is also quite thick. Therefore, the study seeks to clarify the historical flow of the research to build up the study of Korean grammar teacher. Then the study discusses that the intense attention of the research can be one of strategic options to recreate Korean language teachers as Korean grammar teachers. Finally, the study suggests currently necessary tasks to support the grammar teaching competence of Korean language teachers centering on the issues of educational contents and evaluation.
