South Korea's education fever to get into good universities | Undercover Korea

There has been fierce competition to get into good universities in South Korea. This competition has created regional divide. It became a common sense that if you didn't live in Seoul, nor in Gangnam especially, you couldn't get into a good university. Korean students now gather in Daechi-dong, Gangnam, where hundreds of institutes are located, to get a better education.

My red flag is watching this kind of videos for studying motivation

[@theofficialpeterkim]

A good follow up topic would be, is it all worth it? All the studying they do for the test, going to college, is it all worth it in the end.

[@suushisoup]

daechi dong in korea is basically like kota in india lmao

[@peterpumpkin_eater69]

This is just bullshit.. i bet i know more than those "eating in the road cause i have no time to waste" kind of people.. study is all about how much you enjoy it , if u force someone into it, it will eventually just backfire in the form of mental health issues in future... I literally studied for only about 5-6 hrs daily to get into IIT which is like a benchmark of tough exams and it's really hard for me to believe that their exams could be any harder than jee advanced.. i can say most of them are there just because of pressure from their peers and family

Who's in chrage of the intro music?? We need a meeting held as subscribers 😂

[@ayushi2540]

at least South korea has less competition , in INDIA , for entering top colleges or getting jobs, the probability u have is less than 1 % , Imagine 99+% failure ratio and still we put our heart , soul, efforts, dedication to get into that 1%........i hope our education system would improve in future.........by the way like daechi dong we have kota here in INDIA

[@no-ji7lx]

its like sk's kota lol

[@jessnalulila5709]

The sad part is that I can't see this situation getting less competitive any time soon

[@yusraazhar3691]

I see alot of countries mostly in asia such as india pakistan sri lanka relate to this situation that good marks equal good uni equals good life.

[@celesteaylen3701]

idk ,I am so obsessed about the education system of south Korea

[@shirelsloomi8452]

For some reason, I am obsessed about this topic- the education system of south Korea.

[@patricequinn7733]

The joy of learning gets lost in this system.They're learning how to position themselves for a "good job" in a company,as are their peers.Too many can't afford a decent place to live,even after graduating.

[@lilysdays9326]

Similar to sri lanka . We also trying our best to enter universities

[@sumayyasheraf4973]

I really like wish that children were able to find the best for them and live for what they love✨Fighting 💜

[@sumayyasheraf4973]

I really wish that the best happens to all students who are taking Suneung... Fighting💥

[@jinkim4207]

This is why my parents sent me to another country to study and I’m so glad they did it. (I love Korea but I’m not a fan of the education system, fight me)

[@fadijany]

I love all ur videos !

[@sourcr7]

unfortunatelly most parents are there not to support but to press their kids

[@janicekim74]

This is so Sky Castle.

It's stressful when I watch it.. I'm so blessed I live in Malaysia.
