1. I was not surprised by the article at all. My parents and I often talk about how rigorous and blind Korean parents are. They work their children like machines, sending them to hagwons at every chance they get.
2. I never heard of such case where students drop out However, I did hear a lot of cases where students were not doing so good. Usually they had hard time managing the work load since they’ve been trained to do everything so perfect, they couldn’t handle all the work given.
3. I believe the problem is the mind sets of the Korean parents. They OVER work them to the point where they wear out by the time they reach college. Also, because they send their children to hagwons makes the children’s studying habits very dependable; they can not manage to understand and study independently in a given time. However, the fact that they are too worn out is indeed the biggest problem.
4. Participating in extracurricular activities enriches one’s mind and allows one to have a well circulating social life. It broadens one’s point of view and reduces stress. Overall,
having some time off from studying helps one to take a step back and open up for other aspects of life.
5. Likewise as I mentioned in number 4, studying can interfere with the one’s views on other aspects of life. He/she will have poor socializing skills and will have high level of stress which will definitely affect his/her behavior.
6. Whilst studying hard, one should know how to get out of the studying mode. He/she should have experiences in diverse activities which will ensure them to have an open mind and views. Studying too hard may be the longest way to reach success. Hence, Korean parents should learn to know the balance of studying and other activities that will lead them to success.
