The purpose of this study is to propose a direction for the development of business Korean textbooks for foreign learners who want to work as middle managers in office positions in Korean companies. First, previous studies on business Korean education were reviewed. And, 4types of business Korean textbooks were analyzed to see if the current educational content meets the needs of learners. As a result of analysis, though the business textbooks aim for the common purpose of foreign learners to find employment in Korean companies, there are differences in the content composition. The level of learners was not clear, and the scope and difficulty of topic selection were significantly different. The vocabulary and grammar of the text were not related to actual practical situations. The reading activity was the main activity rather than a speaking activity that consumers wanted. The conversations and materials in those books were closer to everyday communication than to introducing the work. We judged that there is a limit to understanding Korean companies and workplace culture for prospective foreign workers due to the lack of introduction to workplace culture. Therefore, based on the results of textbook analysis, this study proposes to divide the business Korean textbook system into two for general office and specialized fields and divide the learning stage according to the level of the learner. In detail, this study proposed ‘composition of content suitable for purpose, presentation of vocabulary expressions related to topics, strengthening of work-related speaking-listening, and introduction of various workplace cultures’ as directions for the development of practical Korean textbooks for middle office managers.
