Park, In-gee The matter to presuppose in discussion about evaluation in Korean subject is that it should pursue the peculiarity of Korean subject evaluation which is not restored to generalization of education evaluation. Furthermore, eval uation discourses that increase commonness and difference between subcategories of Korean subject should be provided continuously. Moreover, the role of evaluation in Korean subject should be expanded from inside to outside the school. The mainstream of evaluation in Korean subject has been normreferenced evaluation under academic-oriented curriculum for the past half of a century. Moreover, the pattern was monotonous and uniform as if only standardized and formal evaluation were existed. However, activity-oriented evaluation that was focused on function of the process to use Korean were started to be empathized. And then, some informal evaluations that were focused on performance and exploration process of learner-oriented language experience were started to get attention. Recently, evaluations that emphasize diverse literacy and communication of language use become significant. Evaluation in Korean subject was 1) predominant with the perspective to see evaluation as an engineering system, 2) passive for evaluation language performance, 3) predominant with summative evaluation, 4) failed to settle performance assessment, and 5) evaluation on literature education was clearly standstill. These can be pointed out as defects of evaluation in Korean subject. Therefore, the following efforts are demanded for futuristic development of evaluation in Korean subject. 1) State level of Korean proficiency evaluation system should be established as regular system. So Korean proficiency of all the students of nation should be chronically evaluated with a system. 2) Diverse concerns on Korean performance evaluation are necessary, and the evaluation tool should be diversified. So Korean subject evaluation should pursue to integrate knowledge, function, attitude, and ethics. 3) Material of evaluation in Korean subject evaluation and feedback method should be plentiful with good quality. Living evaluation Material that reflects the change of Korean use mode are required. 4) Korean subject evaluation should establish a new field for cultural literacy.
