영문 초록

This study investigates how East Asian college students in Korea, Japan, and Taiwan respectively recognize their own country's English education and related policies. This study then analyzes the differences in responses of students from the three different countries by comparing and contrasting. In Asia, the value of the English language has become higher and more dominant than any other period in history. As a result, many Asian countries are not only investing a lot of their budget to support these nations to learn English but also to establish various English educational policies. 156 college students have been randomly selected and have voluntarily taken part in this research. The research used a questionnaire that included 10 questions regarding English education and policy. The results revealed that according to students' nationalities, there are obvious differences in how students recognize English education and policy. In contrast to Japanese and Taiwanese students, Korean students predominantly agreed on the most sustainable 4 items and rejected 4 others among 10 questions. Japanese students concurred to 4 of the items while Taiwanese students reject 6 items. Based on the results, Korean college students are more stressed due to English becoming more prevalent in Korean culture, economic, and education, etc., than students from the other two countries.
