This paper aims to approach speech-act education theoretically and practically as a means of pragmatic education. For this purpose, this thesis divides the goal of speech-act education into two steps: the first step is to assume the most common speech-act situation and acquire the speech-act of a native Korean speaker, and the second step is to choose second or third preferred strategy in the same situation according to the speaker`s intention. As a subordinate goal of the first step, I set up the revision of pragmatic failure caused by speech-act transition. It is important to comprehend the characteristics of Korean speech-act for speech-act teaching. Therefore, in order to understand the results of speech-act research properly, this paper analyzed compliment-response by types and expressions. It is necessary to set up conversation situation and understand each strategy and acquire the appropriate expression in the set-up situation to achieve the goal of speech-act education. In addition, it is essential to research Korean speech-act using natural science research methods, define the pragmatic linguistic aspect and social pragmatic aspect of each speech-act based on the research and apply to Korean education.
