This study aims to consider the influence of writing methods in Korean language learning materials for foreign learners on the overall Korean language writing system by examining the historical development of modern horizontal writing methods in Korean language studies and Korean language learning materials for foreign learners. This study also looks into the ‘horizontal writing’ aspects in Korean language learning materials and the reasons by analyzing the writing purposes and methods of Korean language learning materials. This consideration facilitates a careful approach to the influence of Korean language learning materials for foreigners published in the modern age not only on learning of foreign learners but also on Korean ‘knowledge society’ of the day. Especially, because the laws, systems and standards on Korean language and Hangul writing and pronunciation were not yet made at that time, those, who compiled Korean language learning materials had to think over Hangul writing methods earlier than the scholars of the Joseon Dynasty. Going through the process, they wrote learning materials using alphabet-based writing methods and it seems that the increase of Korean language learning materials published in Korea or Japan had considerable influence on printing, publishing and by extension, the overall knowledge society. This study discusses the beginning of this influence, the cases influenced and the influence on Korean language researchers’ discussions and their publications.
