Abstract

This research offers a gugak class plan designed for teaching gugak (Korean
 traditional music) in a higher level of lifelong education linking remote and
 face-to-face classes. By examining educational goal and the request of both the
 program provider and the middle-aged and elderly student group, this study aims
 to scrutinize conceptional expansion of gugak education, and to suggest
 theoretical ground with a concrete example that can elevate the quality of lifelong
 education. The gugak class, as a part of college liberal arts program, is designed
 to raise a culturally creative person and to help them understand rapidly changing
 contemporary society. It is supposed to provide students with some aspects of
 sentimental relief, social interaction, and access to musical practice. Students are
 expected to listen to gugak from a critical perspective on the basis of
 understanding its aesthetic values. All the class works as well as academic
 discussions are planned to deal with contemporary social issues in relation to
 gugak. Along with the knowledge, the gugak class should be able to guide the
 students with how to take advantage of gugak infrastructure, such as local concert
 venues and free performances, so the middle-aged and elderly students, by
 themselves, can enjoy and understand the music for the rest of their life, not to
 mention the inspiration for further academic or professional challenge.
