Korean High School Schedules are CRAZY

[fiokak]

bro, they don't even get sleep, have school all day every day and it's crazy expensive.

[miimicry]

That's literally inhumane, a person needs way more than just 4 hours of sleep a day-
The education system really needs to be fixed.

[Krshna]

There's a lot of parents who dislike their children. And they use their children to fulfil their failed dreams.

[briannadrawsstuff-]

They see their teachers more than their parents.

[bluedeer]

guys here's a reminder. just because someone out there has it worse than you doesn't mean your pain isn't valid. remember to be grateful, yes, but not to the point it makes your pain turn into guilt. whatever you feel is valid

[anshikapandey]

It's same for Indian students too... it's just that we don't stay at school at night for studies rather go to coachings or study at home and libraries....

[Smays]

I’m never complaining about my school ever again-

[Elitus]

The Korean gov. should really reinvent their school system

[dnfvh]

as a Korean - my high school life was-
7am get up
8am-10pm school. insane

[kritikumari]

In India it's like
5'o clock wake up
School starts at 7
Ends at 1
Private academy starts at 3-3:30
Ends at 8
Reach home by 9
From 11-12 need to do homework
And the day ends at 12-1 am
Coming from an average school attending science students 😂😂😂

[janis]

and then there's me who can barely study 2-3 hours on weekend days 🤡

[dwiamelia]

The most scary thing is those time schedules are common. That means most of student in s.korea are doing this not because they chose to, but they have to. Like it's already been taught by society that you have to spend that much time for studying

[ginayu]

FINALLYY SOMEBODY POINTED OUT THAT KOREAN LIFE IS THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF KDRAMAS

[ArmyBlinklife]

As a korean student, I never knew that. I wake up at 7, go to school at 7:30... Go home at 4 pm. Have my life until 7 pm, then go to tuition and come back at 10 pm and I do whatever I want till 1 or 2 am and then I sleep....

[BubbleTeaLover]

This is where the stereotype “All Asians are smart” comes from

[grapesarepurple]

Korean students, y'all are amazing honestly. I wouldn't have been able to withstand it

[annasheikh]

so That's why the students in kdramas are roaming around in school uniforms all the time and nobody looks at them weird 😂

[TashnaStormy]

As a Kenyan student we go to boarding school.
Wake up- 4.00am
Be in class by 6.00am
Lessons till - 5.30pm
Supper- 6.00pm
Go to class for prep till 10.00pm
Extra study till 12.00am
Wake up at 4 and do it all over again😂😂

This also explains why the bullying is outrageous. All that pent up emotion and stress being channelled in the wrong direction.
