Abstract
With the development of educational research in the realm of SLA, the number of studies for foreign language boredom (FLB) has witnessed an obvious increase in both China and the rest of the globe during the past decade. However, related research in China is still relatively insufficient. This essay aims to discuss the characteristics and uniqueness of FLB research in Chinese English foreign language (EFL) and second language (L2) education, as well as the characteristics of FLB itself, by summarizing and analyzing information from previous studies conducted in China. With the information provided, it can be concluded that FLB studies in China are characterized by their compatibility with different research instruments and convenience. The measurement scales invented for FLB studies in China can be used worldwide, and those invented for FLB studies in other nations can be used in China as well. The phenomenon of FLB in China varies across students with different backgrounds and identities. It can also be concluded from previous studies that the cause and impact of FLB in China is multidimensional. The present article holds referential value for future scholars who plan to analyze the phenomenon of FLB within their countries and suggests future researchers to conduct studies that include students from different educational backgrounds and nations.
