The paper tries to analyze the words and sentences in modern short story with the basis of cognitive semantics and has the purpose to suggest the teaching-learning method for the advanced learners. The Korean learners who approached to the advanced level have learned new vocabulary so they can understand the deep meaning of the words as they approach to the various aspects in the established words. Since the common vocabulary expressed in the modern short story tends to have the connotation as a literary language, those words can be used as a specific and economic learning material. Moreover, when the connotation is connected with the tendency and specific aspects of the modern society, it can be applied effectively for planning Korean cultural education. Viewed from these perspectives, expressions in the modern short story are analyzed with the methods of cognitive semantics-Conceptual Metaphor theory and Frame semantics. It has the aim to approach to the topics showing contemporary social culture. This is not to have the distributive concept but to create the specific meaning through the social -cultural tool and metaphorical mechanism to help learner’s text interpretation ability. As each analyzed expressions are linked to the social-cultural backgrounds, the paper tries to show the possibility of the connection in Korean language and cultural education with the materials of language in novel.
