This study analyzes modern poetry texts related to multi-culture, which are recorded in the 2007 revised literature textbooks(14 kinds), and inspects the present status of multi-cultural education that is being enforced in 'literature' curriculum of high school, thereby aiming to forecast the future of multi-cultural education based on this. The modern-poetry texts related to multi-culture, which are recorded in the current literature textbooks of high school, are those proper for multi-cultural education, which can understand a situation and position of minorities or others in Korean society and can accept them such as foreign workers and international marriage migrant women in Korean society, which entered multi -cultural society. And even the activity learning in literature textbooks, which was quoted along with the original, can be said to have been relatively well established. In this sense, the multi- cultural texts, which are recorded currently in Korean textbook and literature textbook of high school, can be evaluated to play an important role in leading to reflection and introspection on discrimination, based on students' understanding about difference. However, in the face of this positive evaluation, there is a problem as saying that multi-cultural texts are simply learnt for university entrance examination in the actual education field. In a sense of which the Korean society of entering multi-cultural society is still in a serious situation with a problem of discrimination in majority(Koreans), rather than a maladjustment problem of minority (migrants), it is a point of time that needs more positive multi-cultural education targeting many people.
