THE PROBLEM

Introduction

During the pandemic, the rise of gadgets being used to amplify long

distance learning is prevalent. Even after the lockdown and resuming classroom

learning, the use of technology has significantly increased to become an auxiliary

for schoolwork especially in research activities and oral discussions. But this

dependency on technology may affect the students' performance in positive or

negative ways. Examples of this are the 75% of students have strong dependence

on using their cell phones in all activities even after school causing sleep

deprivation and impairing their learning as pupils is a negative effect according to

Malaysians Communication and Multimedia Commission. However, giving them

vast knowledge through a click or tap of a screen and wisdom passed through

generations by just using a search engine making the efficiency of the class 18%

higher as a positive effect according to the British Journal of Educational

Technology. While these have been observed throughout the Senior High School

Department this research is about finding out if these variables have any relation

to the student’s efficiency within the classroom thus giving outlook upon the

relationship of gadgets to students academic performance.

Theoretical Framework

This study is anchored on the following theories, namely: (1) impact of

technology on the academic performance of students and teaching effectiveness

theory, 2) impact of technology on education theory, and 3) one to one technology

and its effect on student academic achievement and motivation.

This descriptive study determines the use of computers of teachers and

students and its effects on students ' academic performance in public and private

schools as cited by Monserate (2018).

The study of impact of technology on education theory determines new

possibilities for using technology in education within the context of critical

theories of education. It focuses on the risk of applying classical curriculum, in

the light of new options that appears due to technological development by

Docekal et al. (2014).

The one-to-one technology theory determine whether one to one

technology truly impacts and effects the academic performance and the academic

achievement of students and their motivation to learn by Harris et al. (2016).

Statement of the Problem

1. To what extent does the regularity of gadget utilization in classrooms

correlate with students' academic performance and learning outcomes?

2. How do various categories of devices, such as tablets, laptops, and

smartphones, influence students' participation and effectiveness in the

learning process?

3. What impact do factors like digital distractions, juggling multiple tasks,

and the management of electronic devices have on determining how

efficiently students focus during classroom activities involving technology?

Hypothesis

H01: The hours of screentime of students will heavily affect the students’

academic performance.

H02: The use of different types of gadgets will not have any influence on their

academic performance.

H03: The study will determine the student’s inefficiency when it comes to gadget

use.

Significance of the Study

The findings of this study will benefit the following:

Students. This study will give students insight on how efficient they could

be within the classroom with the Efficiency rating and how they could improve in

utilizing technology within the classroom with strict guidelines or circumstances.

Parents. It would be beneficial to parents whose children are

technologically literate. This research will serve as a guide for them to support the

students and help them to absolute efficiency with their academic performance.

Teachers. As an essential element in learning, teachers may get

information and ideas from the study's findings. They may gain knowledge to help

students improve their efficiency and ways to avoid misusage of technology.

Future Researchers. The ideas presented in this study are significant

as a reference for future researchers to conduct new research or analyze the

validity of other related research findings. This research study will also serve as a

crossreference for future researchers by giving them the correlation between the

general average of students with their screentime usage of technology within the

classroom.

Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

Scope & Delimitation of the Study

The study was delimited to the efficiency of the senior high school

department, and complimented by factors such as attention span, distractions

screentime and efficiency.

However, the research is only limited to their efficiency and other external

factors such as sex, disabilities, or impairments within the senior high school

department school year 2023-2024 at Chris the King College. They were

specifically chosen because they have experienced the pandemic within their time

as junior high school students and are more adept while also prone to having

more screentime than the average adult.

Definition of Terms

This section provides operational definitions related to educational

concepts in the context of the current study:

Efficiency or Efficiency rating- is the students’ academic performance whether

it is positive or negative.

General average- is the generalized rating on all subjects within the classroom

and represents their academic performance.

Screentime- this is the number of hours the student utilizes the technology

around them during class.

REVIEW OF RELATED STUDIES AND LITERATURE

This chapter presents the review of related literature and studies considered

relevant to the present investigation. These materials were from books, journals,

unpublished and published studies. The literature provided the researcher with

support for this current study.

Foreign-Related Literature and Studies

This study investigates student behavior when they brought their own

digital devices into a lecture theater. Surprisingly, despite all three groups of

undergraduate students bringing laptops and/or smartphones into the lecture

theater, there was no significant difference in academic performance observed

across the years of study. The study's findings established a connection between

student multitasking behaviors in lecture theaters and the principles of Social

Cognitive Theory, highlighting the reciprocal interactions between behaviors, the

learning environment, and individual students. (Limniou, 2021)

Upon further analysis, it was discovered that there was a notable difference

among the three years in terms of the use of applications and various student

characteristics, even after accounting for the different types of devices used. The

research found that students who focused on using only one application during

lectures were more likely to achieve higher academic performance. This focused

approach minimized distractions, allowing these students to better process and

Page | 7
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

retain information. In summary, this study underscores the importance of

reevaluating the teaching delivery methods to prevent students from becoming

absorbed in their devices during lectures. It emphasizes the significance of

student engagement levels and the influence of lecture norms on their behavior.

Addressing these factors is crucial to creating a more effective and focused

learning environment within lecture theaters. (Limniou 2021)

The primary objective of this study was to investigate the impact of one-to-

one technology on students' academic achievement. Additionally, the study aimed

to assess the influence of Technology on students' motivation to learn. These

findings hold considerable importance in the context of the ongoing technological

transformation in schools. As educational institutions increasingly adopt

technology, the study suggests that providing students with individual access to

technology could potentially boost their academic performance and enthusiasm

for learning. Moreover, the study implies that with greater exposure to technology

for students and appropriate professional development opportunities for teachers

to refine their teaching techniques, Technology could serve as a catalyst for school

districts to elevate their students' academic achievements to higher levels

(Harris,2016)

This study demonstrates that different socio-demographic factors have

influence on the use of gadgets by children, and this use has greatly been affecting

both the physical and mental health of the secondary school-going students of

Bangladesh (Mushroor at al., 2019)

Page | 8
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

Based on a comprehensive study of 94 classrooms from four states in

different geographic regions of the country, this quantitative study investigated

the impact of seven factors related to school technology (planning, leadership,

curriculum alignment, professional development, technology use, teacher

openness to change, and teacher non-school computer use) on five dependent

measures in the areas of teacher skill (technology competency and technology

integration), teacher morale, and perceived student learning (impact on student

content acquisition and higher order thinking skills acquisition). Technology

impact on higher-order thinking skills was predicted by teacher openness to

change, the constructivist use of technology, and negatively influenced by

percentage of technology use where students work alone. Implications for the

adoption and use of school technologies are discussed. (Baylor,2002)

Furthermore, having gadgets for children can be beneficial, as children can

be creative through mobile games or with a stimulus for their senses and

imagination through some creative applications. However, the overuse of gadgets

can make the children rely on them, and it also can lead to addiction if they use

them without proper guidance from their parents. This paper aims to visualize the

use of gadgets among children on their acceptance and the impacts on their

development. (2022).

Local Literature and Studies

The proliferation of mobile technology provides not only myriads of

opportunities to support teaching and learning, but also challenges or even stress

to the mobile device users in higher education. On the basis of the Person

Technology fit model (P-T fit model), this study developed a theoretical

framework to investigate the double-edged effect of students’ academic usage of

mobile devices. Specifically, we compared the positive effect (boost academic

performance) with the negative effect (bring technostress) of mobile device usage

among university students. We further investigated the moderating role of mobile

technology self-efficacy toward technostress. Data were collected among 208

university students. Results corroborated that students’ academic usage of mobile

devices does not lead to technostress; however, it helps in enhancing academic

performance. Moreover, students’ individual differences, e.g. mobile technology

self-efficacy and extent of usage significantly influence the technostress. (Chong

li,2019)

Technology has played a vital role in educational innovations, providing

both teachers and learners options and flexibility in their teaching and learning

practice. This descriptive research was designed to find out the effect of electronic

gadgets on the academic performance of senior high school (SHS) learners, study

habit and level of proficiency in the use of electronic gadgets. This was conducted

at four small implementers of SHS in the municipality of Sara, Iloilo. Eighty (80)

randomly selected SHS responded on questionnaire-checklist. Mean, Pearson-r

and t-test were used to analyze data. Results of the study showed that the effect of

Page | 10
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

electronic gadgets on academic performance of SHS learners was very effective,

level of proficiency on use of electronic gadgets was highly proficient, study habit

of SHS learners was very good. There were no significant differences in effect of

electronic gadgets on the academic performance, level of proficiency on the use of

electronic gadgets and study habit of SHS. There was no significant relationships

between the effect of electronic gadgets, level of proficiency in the use of

electronic gadgets and study habit on the academic performance. Learners are

aware on effects, yet responsive and educated about ill effects of gadgets.

Educational use of gadgets develops a foundation of good/strong/progressive and

effective citizens in the future. Electronic gadgets are beneficial in the schools.

Therefore, the principals/school heads should allow learners and teachers use

gadgets in class. However, constant reminder should be instigated in the various

negative effects of these gadgets.( Balbaguio,2021)

The influence of the information and communication technologies (ICTs)

in open and distance learning (ODL) in a developing country, the Philippines, is

critically evaluated in this paper. Specifically, this paper examines how ICTs have

influenced or shaped the development of ODL in this country. Also examined are

the different stages or generations of distance education (DE) in the Philippines,

which are characterized mainly by the dominant technology used for the delivery

of instructional content and student support services. The different ICTs being

used in ODL and their specific applications to the various facets of this mode of

delivery are also described. Also included is an examination on how quality of

Page | 11
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

education is ensured in a technology-driven system of teaching and learning,

which includes, among others, the employment of the ‘quality circle approach’ in

the development of courses and learning packages, and the provision of

appropriate technologies to perform academic processes and achieve institutional

goals. Experiences of the various universities in the Philippines are also cited in

this paper. Lessons have been drawn from the ODL experience to guide educators

from other developing countries.(Pena-Bandalaria,2020)

METHODOLOGY

This chapter describes the research design of the study and research locale,

the participants, the procedure in designing the research instrument, data

gathering procedure, research ethics, and data analysis. This study determines the

perceived effect of captioned Korean Dramas on Learners' English Vocabulary

among selected students.

Research Design

This research seeks to study the phenomenon of gadgets affecting the

performance of students. With this in mind, the study employs a correlational

design. This fits into the quantitative nature of this study in comparing

relationships between two or more variables. Also, the design is compatible with

psychology. A feature that crosses the educational nature of this study.

Research Locale

This study was conducted through selected participants from different

schools in Gingoog City during the academic year 2021-2022.

Gingoog is a 2nd class component city in Misamis Oriental, Philippines.

According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 136,698 people. Like other

municipalities in the Philippines that retained Spanish-based orthography, the

Page | 13
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

city name is spelled as Gingoog. Still, it is pronounced as ['hiŋuog] or HEE-

nguog since it originated as a Binukid word.

Participants of the study

The respondents of this research are from Grade 12 Humanities and Social

Sciences students of Christ the King College in Gingoog City. Given that our topic

focuses on the student's efficiency within the classroom while using gadgets, we

chose the Grade 12 HUMSS students to be our participants as they possess

characteristics that are applicable to our research.

Research Tools

In this research, the researchers opted to use random sampling in choosing 30

students from Grade 12 HUMSS. Random sampling is a sampling technique in

which each sample has an equal probability of being chosen. With the use of this

method, the researchers will randomly select 30 students from Grade 12 HUMSS

to respond to the survey that will be given.

Ethical Considerations

This study will be split into two parts – Preference profiling and Assessing

attention level over time. Preference profiling will consist of a basic questionnaire

to gather statistical data of their preferred gadget regardless of race, gender or

religion. In assessing attention level over time, the researcher will create a rating

Page | 14
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

type of assessment for a simple while the questionnaire only contains 2 parts

these factors will determine the statistical data.

Data Gathering Procedure

This questionnaire will be featured within google forms for simpler data

collecting as google forms is compatible with most types of platforms within the

internet as well as anti-cheating mechanisms of google for honest statistical data

and easier access for our demographic. The respondents will be informed of their

Civil rights along with their right to privacy as to not alarm them of any misuse of

the information they are providing within this questionnaire and help them

understand with the masses of how these factors affect their academic

performance as proof of the matter.

Data Analysis

The data on the study of the perceived effect of watching Korean dramas on

improving the English vocabulary of the selected student-participants underwent

analysis based on the semi-structured interview results.

Semi-structured, face-to-face, and online interviews transpired using a

preprepared interview guide. Participants communicated freely and told stories

using their own words. Each interview lasted from 45 minutes to one hour. The

researchers did all the interviews. At the end of each interview, the researcher

reminded the participants about his need for a second contact via phone calls to

discuss the findings and make sure that the results reflect their own experiences.

Page | 15
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and to follow health protocols, only two

participants underwent face-to-face interviews while the other three used the

Messenger chat.

The researcher read and re-read each transcript to gain thought of the

content. Each transcript reflected significant statements of the phenomenon with

its corresponding transcript numbers. Then, these meaningful statements reveal

formulated meanings, which were then grouped to compose theme clusters—

similar ideas of a phenomenon cluster to develop emergent themes. Finally, the

findings underwent validation by the participants to compare the researcher's

results with their experiences.

The study employed narrative analysis in exploring and analyzing the

perceived effect of watching captioned Korean dramas on improving English

vocabulary.

The following steps represent Colaizzi's (1978) process for phenomenological

data analysis (cited in Sanders, 2003; Speziale & Carpenter, 2007).

1. Each transcript should be read and re-read to obtain a general sense

of the whole content.

2. For each transcript, significant statements that pertain to the

phenomenon under study should be extracted. These statements must be

recorded on a separate sheet noting their pages and line numbers.

3. Meanings should be formulated from these significant statements.

Page | 16
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

4. The formulated meanings should be sorted into categories, clusters

of themes, and themes.

5. The study's findings should be integrated into a detailed description

of the phenomenon under investigation.

6. The fundamental structure of the phenomenon should be described.

7. Finally, validation of the findings should be sought from the

research participants to compare their descriptive results with their experiences.

PRESENTATION, ANALYSIS, AND INTERPRETATION OF DATA

This chapter presents the analysis and interpretation of data gathered in

the study. The organization is according to themes and subthemes. The discussion

in this chapter focused on the perceived effects of captioned Korean dramas in

improving English vocabulary.

The researchers presented, analyzed, and interpreted the data as these

explored, described, and examined the participants' lived experiences, interests,

and concerns (Creswell, 2007). In this section, the researcher also presented,

analyzed, and interpreted mainly students' learning experiences in watching

captioned Korean dramas. The researchers further obtained significant data on

students' learning experiences using researcher-made interview protocols.

Moreover, the researchers considered thick-rich descriptions as validation

strategies by presenting verbatim statements in the text.

Grand Theme. Improved English vocabulary and language learning

Cluster Theme 1. Driven extrinsic motivation

Learners have watched captioned Korean dramas since it became a

worldwide hit, which gave them a great sense of fascination. Korean dramas have

unique plotlines and attractive actors and actresses, which yielded positive

influence to the learners' encouragement to watch captioned Korean dramas, not

just for better understanding of the story but also explicitly learn English

translations of the Korean words used. Participant 1 mentioned:

Page | 20
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

“… Actually, at first wala jud koy interest mag tan aw anang mga intsik intsik

nga salida kay dili ko makasabot not until nga naay nag recommend sa ako nga

mag tan aw daw mig Boys Over Flowers tungod kay gwapo daw kayo ang mga

nagdala tapos chada kaayog story…”

“…In the long run, didto nagsugod akong pagkahilig og Korean drama…”

Moreover, responses from the interview implied that the success of watching

captioned Korean dramas was greatly influenced by the exquisite story plot lines

that are unique and capture viewers' interests of all ages.

According to Korean Culture and Information Service (2011), Korean

dramas are commonly liked by people because of the attractive actors and

actresses and the uniqueness of the story's plot. Knowing the potency of their

popularity, Korean television stations created a massive sensation by airing

Korean dramas

that were highly anticipated by countries worldwide.

Moreover, the increasing popularity of Korean drama is also due to the

emerging of another interesting digital media technology, Internet Television

which enables audiences to access television dramas series through the Internet

(Amaran and Wen, 2018).

An important finding from this study is that participants reported that

they watch captioned Korean dramas because they are entertained and have

learned new English vocabulary.

Page | 21
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

The study of Rinekso et al. (2021) on "Improving Vocabulary While

Watching Korean Dramas: A case of Indonesian EFL University Students" found

that students are extrinsically motivated to watch Korean dramas. The study

revealed that the students enjoyed learning English subtitles while watching

Korean dramas. They were encouraged to learn vocabulary because of Korean

dramas' interesting storyline, editing effect, and scene/setting. Participants 3 & 5

proved by these statements:

"…Indeed, dili ko katoo na even though the language used by the actors
are purely Korean, I still learn new English words gikan sa captions because
ako dayon gina search ang meaning…"

“…Dako kaayo nahelp ang mga new English words kay naana ko nagamit new
words to improve my essays.”

Pedagogically, this study implies that learning vocabulary can be done

regarding the students' interests, including watching Korean dramas.

Cluster Theme 2: Embraced Self-satisfaction and fulfillment

The success of watching captioned Korean drama is rewarding since one

finds self-satisfaction in its output. It gave a sense of relaxation to the viewers

from the burden of work, storylines instill a lot of life lessons, and provide an

advantage to students who took up Korean Language in their foreign language

class. The uniqueness of Korean dramas helped them discover their inner selves

to be selfrewarding and satisfying. Moreover, they felt great fulfillment upon

learning new languages that are beneficial in taking up foreign language classes.

To concretize this, participant 3 stated:

Page | 22
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

"…Watching Korean dramas allows me to expand my vocabulary both in


Korean and English na nagamit kaayo na ko kay naa mi Foreign language na
subject …"

These findings would mean that after watching captioned Korean dramas,

learners could feel fulfillment and satisfaction. In particular, Participant 5 stated

that the learning experience she gained from watching captioned Korean dramas

helped her in addition to her vocabulary knowledge as a major English student.

The perceived effects of watching captioned Korean dramas gave the learners a

great sense of hope, showing self-satisfaction and fulfillment in language learning.

Participant 1 & 2 stated:

"… It is a fulfillment on my part that as a student my great fascination to


Korean dramas allows me to be entertained and also to learn translated
figurative languages that I can use in improving my essays…"

"… I am very happy that I have also learned new languages…"

The findings displayed that watching captioned Korean dramas enables the

learners to deepen their vocabulary and improves their writing skills on their own.

In line with this, some studies reveal that using English subtitles can

support the vocabulary learning environment. Thus, audio-video media

completed with English subtitles allow learners to learn English through

multisensory channels and enhance their vocabulary level (Harji, Woods & Alavi,

2010).

Page | 23
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

Cluster Theme 3. Acquired Language Learning Experiences


Captioned Korean Dramas enable viewers to develop greater autonomy in

language learning. Participants 2 and 3 directly implied that through the long

years of watching captioned Korean dramas, they improved their communication

skills, developed writing skills, and effectively used their newly-learned words in

their respective classes. In like manner, watching captioned had proven the

positive outcomes of learners' language acquisition and learning. Participant 2

specified:

"…Knowing that captioned Korean dramas help me find ways to enhance more
on my grammar…"

"…helps me learn and discover new English words…"

Also, by watching captioned Korean dramas, viewers came up with a

specific strategy in improving their vocabulary skills. The participants greatly

emphasized how they looked at the meaning of the new words themselves. As

stated by participant 2:

"…by having my dictionary beside me while watching or I do research


about it.…"

Moreover, watching captioned Korean dramas changed how the

viewer/student improves their English communication skills. Participant 4


stated:

Page | 24
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

"…I could speak more in English. Na-enhance akong reading


comprehension at the same time I tend to practice speaking and writing na dili
redundant because I have learned new words which I can use in improving my
essays and for normal conversations…"

Furthermore, watching captioned Korean dramas helped learners to

enhance their writing skills. Participant 1 mentioned:

"…It widens my imagination in creating sentences/paragraphs in some of


my assignments. It helped me construct better sentences.…"

Unknowingly, learners' language learning experiences in watching

captioned Korean dramas are vital in improving English language vocabulary that

might influence the students and affect their performance in the long run.

Participant 5 stated:

"…Subtitles from Korean dramas really helped me improved my


knowledge in English as well as learning new English terms or slang words that
are appropriate to use in a conversation because I know that Koreans used
formal and informal language depending on who they are talking to.…"

In some studies, Koolstra and Beentjes' (1999) study argues that English

subtitles on television programs or audio-video media provide a rich context for

language acquisition, especially vocabulary acquisition. A study exploring the

effects of film subtitles on English listening and vocabulary found that subtitles

help students understand the content of the film (Napikul, Cedar &

Roongrattanakool, 2018). The subtitles provide some new vocabulary that

students have never seen before. In line with this, another study claimed that

Page | 25
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

using subtitled movies enhances the learning of a new language among ESP

students (Bellalem,

Neddar, Bouagada & Djelloul, 2018)

Moreover, it is clear evidence to indicate that watching captioned Korean

dramas is a valuable fascination for learners to undertake.

Cluster Theme 4. Perceived Lifestyle and Culture

Korean dramas greatly influence people by showing Korea's lifestyle and culture

in most movie scenes. Through these influences, learners and other viewers

continue to watch K-dramas to learn a language and know their lifestyle and

culture. This perceived knowledge about Korean culture helps the learners to

understand more about the story and the characters. To support this claim,

participants 2 and 3 clearly stated that:

“…Ganahan ko magtan aw aning mga Korean dramas kay makalingaw kaayo

sila inig makighalubilo sa lain tao ug ang ilang pagkaon lami kaayo

lantawon…”

“…Although nay similarities ilang culture ug lifestyle sa atoa, naa gihapon

kalahian labaw na kining nay silay ginagamit nga honorifics ug unique nga

way sa pag greet like mag bow…”

Page | 26
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

Aside from knowing Koreans' unique way of showing respect and ways of

greeting, viewers also may perceive how Koreans behave and pay attention to

other people, especially their family members. Participant 3 stated:

"… It's very amazing to know that Korean pay attention to their family and give

importance to the needs of every family member at home…"

Aminah (2012) stated that the Korean wave in Malaysia leads viewers towards

Korean culture such as lifestyle and norms, fashion sense, food consumption,

music, etc.

On the local level, media scholars such as Tian Yi Lee (2014) believe the

global spread of international media content may eventually lead to the loss of

autonomous culture. The Taiwanese media scholar Hsuan Hao Chang particularly

worries that the rise of Korean drama is culturally invasive.

SUMMARY, FINDINGS, GENERAL STATEMENTS, AND

RECOMMENDATIONS

This chapter presents the summary, findings, essence, and recommendations

of the study.

Summary

This study explored the perceived effects of watching captioned Korean

dramas on improving learners' English vocabulary.

The researcher conducted the study during the School Year 2021-2021 in the

division of Gingoog City. The study utilized a qualitative method of research

employing narrative analysis. The data tools employed the interview guides using

the researcher-made semi-structured questions.

Page | 28
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

Five purposively chosen Korean drama avid fans served as participants of the

study. They came from a different school in Gingoog City, and four participants

came from Christ the King College, while the other came from Kisandi National

High School. The study used the phenomenological data analysis by Colaizzi

(1978).

Findings

Based on the data, the following are the salient findings:

1. One grand theme emerged from the study, namely: Improved

English vocabulary and language learning

1.1 This grand theme has cluster themes, namely: (a) Driven Extrinsic

Motivation, (b) Embraced Self-satisfaction and fulfillment, (c) Acquired Language

Learning Experiences, and (d) Perceived Culture and Lifestyles.

2.1 The impact of watching captioned Korean dramas based on learners'

learning experiences in improving English vocabulary is driven by extrinsic

motivation. To begin with, learners ascertained that the unique story plot lines

and attractive characters of captioned Korean dramas gave them meaningful

learning self-realizations in improving English vocabulary. Moreover, learners'

language learning experience through the long years of watching captioned

Page | 29
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

Korean dramas helped them discover their inner selves to be self-rewarding and

fulfilling. Similarly, learners ascertained that acquired language learning

experiences would promote learning autonomy and give learners new English

words to ponder, which helped widen their vocabulary. In the same way, watching

captioned Korean dramas has boosted their confidence in speaking Korean

phrases learned new lifestyles and cultures that instill life lessons. Finally,

learners affirmed that watching captioned Korean dramas has enabled them to

learn and be entertained simultaneously.

Conclusions

Regarding the data results and discussions, this study confirms that

watching Korean dramas with English subtitles can help learners improve their

English vocabulary. Regarding the students' learning experiences while watching

captioned Korean dramas, the study results show that the participants were more

comfortable watching with English subtitles. The majority of the

studentparticipants preferred captioned Korean dramas because they served

more exciting storylines, editing effects, and scenes/settings.

In this case, the compelling storyline, editing effect, and scene/setting may

encourage students to learn vocabulary through the English captions embedded in

Korean dramas. Meanwhile, the students were at ease with using English subtitles

because they could quickly grasp the essence of the movie's content.

Furthermore, some of the reasons why student-participants preferred to

learn English vocabulary by watching Korean dramas with English subtitles

Page | 30
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

include the opportunity to discover new vocabulary while watching their favorite

series, the enjoyment of watching Korean dramas with English subtitles, the belief

that watching Korean dramas with English subtitles can improve vocabulary, and

the belief that watching Korean dramas with English subtitles can be an

alternative way for improving vocabulary.

Pedagogically, the findings of this study imply that students' hobbies can

be used to learn vocabulary. As a result, we can conclude that learning a language

through something that students enjoy can boost their motivation and deepen

their vocabulary learning. Furthermore, the researchers suggested additional

research to broaden the scope of the subtitling issue by looking into the use of

subtitles to improve reading skills.

Recommendations

Based on the findings and conclusions of the study, the researchers arrived at the

following recommendations to the following entities:

1. To the School Administrators:

1.1 Plan and materialize faculty development programs, such as seminars and

symposia, specifically on the utilization of captioned movies on improving

learners' vocabulary learning that engage students authentically.

1.2 Provide in-service training for teachers to be more aware of students’

engagement and academic achievement as well as the perceived effect of

Page | 31
Christ the King College – Humanities and Social Sciences

captioned dramas that impacted their vocabulary learning as delineated in

this study.

2. To the Guidance Office Personnel:

2.1 Beef-up intervention program like Online Kamustahan on students to

reconnect with them as they associate themselves more on watching

popular series such as Korean dramas while learning at home.

3. To the Teachers:

3.1 Devise unique teaching strategies that ignite students’ interests like using

famous Korean dramas as a thematic approach or dialogue that supplies

grammar translation.

4. To the Parents:

4.1 Constantly monitor your children in terms of their hobbies and

preferences as well as talk with them.

5. Future Researchers:

5.1 Make or follow up research with respect to the use of captioned series on

improving learners' vocabulary as well as broaden the scope of subtitling

usage by looking into the use of subtitles to improve reading skills.
