    It’s a society’s problem.

    Oh sure, hagwon is a societal problem in Korea, but it’s a problem that stems from how highly competitive the whole education system is, which in turn stems from the very patriarchal culture where companies highly respect some unis and not so much others, as well as the high degree of personal value derived from where and how hard you work. It’s a much deeper issue than merely hagwon itself.
