This study analyzed the sociodemographic characteristics of the subjective health perception of married immigrant mothers in Korea and the differences between ‘experience of discrimination’, ‘self-esteem’, and ‘parental efficacy.’The analysis method was cross-tabulation and logistic regression analysis, and the statistical program used was SPSS 26.0. The results showed that the Subjective Health Perception of the foreign mothers in Korea tended to be less healthy as their age increased. On the other hand, the absence of 'Discrimination Experience' and high levels of 'Self-Esteem' and 'Parental Effectiveness' tended to be perceived as healthy. In light of these results, it is imperative to recommend the development of health education and support programs aimed at improving the subjective health perception of migrant mothers. These educational support programs should be tailored to different age groups and encompass content that enhances the self-esteem and parental efficacy of migrant women and foreign mothers. Such health education programs are anticipated to contribute to a more thoughtful consideration of their subjective health awareness.
