With the awareness of globalization, multilingual abilities have been encouraged, and parents seek bilingual education to provide their children with social prestige and economic advancement. However, in Korea, bilingual education reproduces and reinforces the privilege of social status, prestige, and power. This research explores the ideologies of upper-and middle-class parents through the motivations of those who choose to send their child to international schools, which are regarded as elite bilingual programs, in South Korea. This study draws on Bourdieu’s notions to examine how social class interconnects with language ideologies. This study uses narrative interviewing, a qualitative data collection method. Through a critical discourse analysis of the data, the study reveals three themes of language ideologies: English as the power of a powerful country, English as a qualification requirement for the middle class, and English as a medium to establish social boundaries.
