This study was aimed at developing an online Korean course for graduate school students of UST(University of Science and Technology) and suggesting the direction for contents of an e-learning Korean course. This study was mainly focused on development of a distinguished educational course after making the best use of the characteristics of online education and also on distinctiveness as a Korean course for general education course in Korean universities. The result of the survey about demand of learners showed that the learners wanted to study Korean in daily situations, such as in school, office, for shopping or ordering food. They also needed a chance to check what they have learnt through different examples of listening and speaking as well as through online content tests. Based on the demand, the study designed the curriculum of two courses; Basic Korean 1 and Basic Korean 2 with 30 chapters each. This program contains daily Korean topics and different contents on academic Korean. Each chapter consists of ‘beginning’, ‘learning’, ‘evaluation’ and ’organization’. It provides sufficient incremental learning by situational category. The study expects to be applied for the development of a customized Korean e-learning course reflecting the learner’s demand.
