Can anyone give me guidance to locate information on this topic?

Koreans were obviously quite interested in establishing a national system of education even before 1905. You might want to have a look at Lee, Yoonmi: Modern Education, Textbooks and the Image of the Nation. Politics of Modernization and Nationalism in Korean Education, 1880-1910.

Was it meant as a textbook for adult or juvenile learning? My limited reading credits the Japanese with establishing the first true Public school system in Korea. This book, if for juveniles, suggests that the Yi dynasty had established, or was in the process of establishing, a public school educational system beyond that of the Confucian schools for the sons of Yangbang. The content likewise suggests that western missionaries were involved in the selection of some of the materials included. The “Elementary Reader for Citizens” raises questions.
