Academic Elitism
Hagwons are often associated with South Korea's pervasive academic elitism due to their provision of supplementary education. Many students rely heavily on hagwons to improve their grades and to perform well on the College Scholastic Ability Test, WHICH DETERMINES.... and this reliance has driven up the prices of these institutes, which limit access to students from more affluent backgrounds or geographical areas.[1] This dynamic illustrates the extremely high demand for private education in a highly competitive academic environment, which CAN contribute to educational inequality.[2] Some hagwons offer curriculums specifically focused on admissions to SKY universities, WHICH ARE. Consequently, statistics show that students from lower-income backgrounds might have a lower chance of admissions to universities, potentially widening the educational social gap within the South Korean society.[3] The association of hagwons with academic elitism in South Korea is portrayed in many South Korean TV shows. In "SKY Castle", the plot centers on upper-class families destroying each other's lives by committing identity fraud, murder, and suicide in order to send their children to the top universities and secure lucrative career paths.
