Jong-Hyun Kim and the Phenomena of Youth Suicide in Korea

in life •  7 years ago 

Interesting....I just left Korea a little under two months ago. I loved my time there, but I don't have a desire to go back. It's a very stressful culture overall. Teaching at a hagwon opens your eyes to how much is expected from kids there. I mean these kids are putting in 12 hour days. But the stressful culture also fuels the 24 hour open everything and craziest party culture I have ever seen. But besides that, from what I experienced in Seoul, it is not the type of vibe that I would want to live my life in long term.
