An Analysis of the Evolution of Research on Korean Domestic Chinese Language Examinations from a Bibliometric Perspective :Focusing on the Years 2000-2003

Duan Di, Seo Weon-Nam

Abstract

The increasing integration of Chinese in education poses new challenges for countries, with Korea offering valuable insights due to its rich history and resources in Chinese education and domestic examinations. This paper employs a bibliometric perspective to systematically analyze research literature on Korean Domestic Chinese language examinations from 2000 to 2023, aiming to retrospectively and prospectively examine the past two decades of related studies. Through the distribution of publication frequencies, literature reviews, and the analysis of keyword frequencies, this study identifies the most frequently studied Korea’s domestic Chinese language examinations, main research domains, and developmental characteristics over time. It summarizes the limitations of existing research and proposes future directions, including the integration of technology with testing, the application of diversified research methodologies, and the expansion of international comparative studies. Despite the extensive history and variety of Chinese tests in Korea, the scope of actual domestic examination research is fragmented, with insufficiently diverse methodologies, perspectives, or depth, and an inadequate volume of literature, which results in a lack of systematic inquiry. This research aims to stimulate further scholarly attention to this field, and to offer reference points for the development, reform, and adjustment of Chinese examinations in Korea, China, and beyond.
