Park Jongkwan · Goo Youngsan The purpose of this study is to examine the significance of the new- ly established media section within the 2022 Korean language curricu- lum(KLC). To this end, the achievement standards of the 2022 KLC media section were analyzed and compared with those of other sections of the same curriculum and of the 2015 KLC. In order to examine the signifi- cance of the media section, the meaning of the achievement standards was analyzed. Moreover, at the same time, there was also an identifica- tion of how, before and after the establishment of the media section, the aforementioned meaning differed and connected with the achievement standards of other sections within the KLC was identified. As a result, the achievement standards in the media section were divided into two groups according to criteria of connectivity and differentiation. The achievement standards with highly connectivity were subdivided into three types, and improvement directions were proposed for those with high levels of dif- ferentiation.
