Humanities learning courses for the participants of the self-support programs in Korea is similar to the Clement course initiated by Earl Shorris in the US. The aim of this study is to understand the meaning and accepting process of the humanities learning among the participants of the self-supporting programs in Korea. For this aim, data were collected mainly from the intensive interviews with 13 research participants who have finished both the general and in depth humanities courses offered by Seoul Metropolitan City government. And one of the researchers participated and observed the entire courses. As a result of the study, it was analyzed that research participants' accepting processes of the course were such three-patterned. The first pattern is to join actively the course without any hesitation. Second is to accept it passively with hesitation but welcoming it soon. The third pattern is to join it not intentionally with strong resistance, but step by step overcoming the barriers, at last embracing wholeheartedly the course. During the accepting process, significant factors were founded influential as such; participants’ personal motivations, teachers’ active role, educational environment and living conditions. Some practical and policy implications could be drawn from such findings.
