This paper aims to analyze the structure of the Korean elementary dictionaries and to evaluate them considering their achievement of educational goals according to the curriculum. Bori Korean dictionary (Center for dictionary compilation of native word), Yonsei Korean elementary dictionaries(Yonsei University, Institute of Language and Information Studies), New Korean elementary dictionary(Doosan Dong-A), and Pureunet Korean elementary dictionary (Kumsung publishing) are analyzed based on two aspects, macro-structure and micro-structure. The headword lists of these dictionaries consist of the words extracted from elementary school textbooks and they include proper nouns and idiomatic expressions in common. In terms of language units, New Korean elementary dictionary missed ‘Josa’ as called as Korean particle, and Yonsei is only dictionary to include ‘Eomi’-the conjugation part of Korean verb. There are two ways to identify homographs. One of them is traditional way to attache shoulder numbers to headwords and the other is to provide the distinguishers. The metalanguage used in most dictionaries is controlled for the convenience of the users. Overall, the quality of dictionaries is high. However, the elaboration of micro-structure is required such as complement of headings list and supplement of the information about POS, etc. It is also necessary to supplement the social and cultural information like dialects, etymology, and idiomatic expressions. Affix should be added to headword and the information related to the hypernym/hyponym is required in order to follow the current curriculum.
