This study examined the actual condition of middle school students’ dining out based on the data of the 2016 youth food behavior inquiry data of the Korea Rural Economic Institute. The eating out behavior of 278 middle school students’ according to gender, average eating-out cost per person, monthly average dining-out cost per person, frequency of having breakfast weekly, and dietary information source were calculated into a chi-square value by cross analysis. The main results of this study are as follows. First, in middle school students' eating-out status, most students answered 'eating out', and the highest frequency of eating out was once a week. The reason for eating out was 'to enjoy delicious food', and 'costly price' was the most common reason for not eating out. Food taste was the most common standard for selecting eating out, and a restaurant was the most common place to eat out. The main restaurant was the 'Kimbap specialized store'. Second, there was no significant difference in all items of eating-out status according to gender (p<.001). A significant difference in eating out frequency was observed according to the average eating-out cost per person at one time (p<.001), standard of selecting eating out (p<.001), main places to eat out (p<.001), and main restaurants (p<.001). There was a significant difference in the frequency of eating out (p<.001) in the eating-out status according to the monthly average eating out cost of middle school students per person. Third, the eating-out status according to the weekly frequency of having breakfast of middle school students had a significant difference in the reason for eating out (p<.001). The eating-out status according to the eating information source of middle school students had a significant difference in whether they ate out or not (p<.01) and the frequency of eating out (p<.01). These results highlight the importance of school diet education so that middle school students can achieve healthy eating habits and plan to increase their interest and utilization of school dietary education.
