Lectures delivered in English are being widely implemented in Korean universities. Most universities in Korea are planning to increase the number of lectures in English to keep in step with globalism. However, because Korea is an EFL setting in terms of English teaching, some difficulties are anticipated when Korean professors are required to teach courses in English. In reality, there are pros and cons on this matter. Content-based instruction (CBI) is an approach of language teaching in which the target language is taught by way of teaching contents in the other area than language. One of CBI models, the sheltered CBI, is the closest model to lectures in English in Korean universities. In this study, a review of CBI including its models and theoretical rationales is first presented, which is followed by the discussion of CBI in the EFL setting along with suggestions for lectures in English in Korean Universities.
