The purpose of this study is to investigate how advanced-level students of Japanese language, who are native speakers of Korean, process auditory presented kanji-words in the process of learning Japanese as a foreign language. In an experiment, the orthographic and phonological similarities between the Korean and Japanese languages were treated as independent variables, while the reaction times from the auditory lexical decision task were assigned as the dependent variables. In the analysis, the effect of an increased facilitation of learning due to phonological similarities between orthographically identical words was observed. Further, the inhibitive effect of a low phonological similarity between orthographically identical words was observed as an independent variable. In comparing the results of the study by Yanamoto (2015), whose subjects were native-Korean speakers studying advanced-level Japanese within Japan, native- Korean speakers studying advanced-level Japanese within Korea showed a higher aptitude for auditorily proessing and quickly recognizing the meaning of Japanese words with identical orthography and similar phonology.
