Comparison of the Current Educational Status in China and South Korea

Abstract

China and South Korea are neighboring countries with the closest geographical and cultural proximity. From ancient times to the present, social exchanges between China and South Korea have been highly active and extensive across a wide range of fields, resulting in significant mutual influences in various aspects of society. This includes areas such as philosophy, culture, education, and technology. The educational systems of both countries have their origins in Confucianism, hence there are similarities in their current educational states. However, there are also differences in aspects such as educational systems and environments. This paper aims to compare the current educational status in China and South Korea.
