Code-switching is a widely observed phenomenon that is particularly noticeable in bilingual and multicultural communities. The purpose of this study is to investigate the functions of code-switching. The study is based on in-class observations, and in-group role play, and is an attempt to contribute to better interactions between teachers and students. I have demonstrated that code-switching is used for a wide range of functions, including exploration; creating a relaxed atmosphere; achieving greater explicitness through the Korean form; bonding; expressing emotions; translating unfamiliar words and expressions; and expression emphasis. Through the discussion, I concluded that code-switching in the university classroom is both inevitable and necessary, and is not only a part of communicative resources, but is also an active part of the learning experience.
