Recognizing the importance of culture in language learning, this paper suggests a cultural education through the use of Korean proverbs. Proverbs not only reflect how people think and live, they also cover various themes. Korean language learners have difficulties in understanding Korean proverbs because they contain elements of Korean culture. Korean language learners should be systematically educated in proverbs to effectively communicate with Koreans, as well as to better understand Korean culture. Therefore, it is essential to study how to teach them effectively, and a cultural education textbook based on this study will have to be published. Proverbs education methods have focused on understanding. We will focus on expression education as well as understanding education. This type of textbook will offer a chance to easily learn korean proverbs by providing an interesting format. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the best direction for teaching Korean proverbs, and to present a lesson as a model about their education.
