The World is Too Small for Korean Education Refugees

The number of young Koreans going abroad to study is mushrooming. There are now Korean students in every corner of the world. As a wider cross-section of society send their children overseas for study, stories of success and problems increase as well. The Chosun Ilbo takes a closer look at the educational exodus and the people who leave in search of greener shores.

Kim (40) of Ilsan, north of Seoul, has taken his daughter, who is in junior high school, and his son, an elementary student, and left for South Africa. Kim feels the country is a good place to study. The U.S. and Canada were too expensive, and China seemed dangerous. At first, I felt that Africa was just too far away, Kim said. But now Im satisfied, because for just W3.5 million a month, you can get a British-style education in a country thats a bit of Europe in Africa.
