Abstract
This article explores the direction of Korean culture education by analyzing overseas critical articles on “Squid Game,” which has recently gained worldwide popularity. To this end, previous studies about Korean culture education and intercultural education were examined, and the framework of analysis was derived as “universality,” “specificity,” and “individuality”. Based on this, cultural factors appearing in 50 English articles on “Squid Game” were analyzed. Then a discourse analysis was conducted by selecting 19 articles corresponding to cultural criticism. As a result, overseas perspectives on “Squid Game” were divided into identity-centered interpretation, difference-centered interpretation, and analogical interpretation. Through the significance and limitations of each interpretation, suggestions for the future direction of Korean cultural education were derived.
