[Documentary Prime] held a contest called [Living as a Child Who Can't Study] for elementary, middle, and high school students nationwide for one year starting in December 2013, and began to tell the story of [Children Who Can't Study] through the 300 essays, animations, posters, and video works collected here. Who is a 'child who can't study'? Which elementary, middle, and high school students in Korea think of themselves as children who can't study? The one-year contest called [Living as a Child Who Can't Study] tells the surprising reality of Korean education. In this contest, most children define themselves as children who can't study. There was a child who was the top student in the entire school but said that studying was scary, and there was a child who couldn't stand the prejudice and preconceptions about studying and dropped out of school. As the American girl in the video says, parents nag their children as if they were ten-year-olds taking the college entrance exam tomorrow. In a school where even character is ranked by studying, children suffer irreparable emotional wounds from their parents who nag them again because of such school grades. The reality that 99% of Korean students are hurt by studying is the reality of Korean education. ✔ Program name: Documentary Prime Part 1 of Children Who Can't Study - Studying Wounds Broadcast date: 2015.02.16 #DocumentaryPrime #DomesticEducation #EntranceExam #3rdYearofHighSchool #StudyWounds #Grades #HappinessInOrderofGrades #RealityofKoreanEducation #RealityEducation #EducationPolarization #1stInSchool #CollegeEntranceExam #Prejudice #LivingAsAChildWhoCan'tStudy #EducationReality #EducationProblemsinKorea
