Our modern world is dominated by a flood of images. It is therefore of great interest to investigate how images can also be used efficiently in language textbooks in such a way that learning success is optimized. Surprisingly, there is still little literature on the use of images in language textbooks and especially on their intercultural aspects. The sentence from Sturm (1994) still applies: intercultural understanding of images is one of the big "blank spots" in image research. This book provides an outline of the textbook history of DaF textbooks in South Korea and Germany and shows interesting - also culturally conditioned - quantitative and qualitative differences in the use of the most diverse image types and image functions. A subsequent empirical study of teachers and students in South Korea and Germany reveals clear cultural differences in the way images are received. From this, some recommendations for the use of images in modern language textbooks can be derived.
