I kinda wonder how many refused to do the interview because it would waste their precious studying time

我有点好奇有多少人拒绝接受采访，因为这会浪费他们宝贵的学习时间
Calculus
That only applies to high school students. College in Korea is not as intense as it is in high school there once you get into a good university.

高中生学习才比较紧张。一旦你进入好大学就不用那么紧张了，韩国的大学和高中不一样
Napoleonic British Officer Threatens You
Studying is important, most people think studying ends at school. That’s just a naïve assumption. Sure, you’ve got to balance studying and your personal life, but studying improves your knowledge. Look at Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerburg, they were the nerds back in the day.

学习是很重要的，大部分人认为离开学校学习就结束了，但这种想法非常天真。你必须要平衡学习和自己的生活，学习能提高你的知识水平。看看比尔·盖茨和马克·扎克伯格，他们当年都是书呆子。

Did he just casually say that he placed first in the national mathematical exam?

他是随口说自己在全国数学考试中得了第一名吗?

In Asia maths is given so much importance

在亚洲数学非常重要

The education system is quite literally the hunger games high school edition. You fight with your peers and give all u’ve got to be at the top. Either it’s SNU or nothing.

这里的教育系统简直就是《饥饿游戏》高中版。你要和你的同龄人竞争，竭尽所能名列前茅。要么考进首尔大学，要么什么也不是

So true

说的没错
Sakura Kumari
What a waste of education! No Nobel Prize either.

真是在浪费教育!韩国也没有获得过诺贝尔奖。
Ichigo Hoshimiya
@Sakura Kumari Its not a waste. Studying is never a waste.

这不是浪费，学习怎么能算浪费
Sakura Kumari
@Ichigo Hoshimiya
I really wonder what they’re studying there. Any useful subjects for human being? 0 Nobel Prize from Korea, why?

我真想知道他们在那里学什么。有任何什么对人类有用的课题吗?韩国从来没有获得过诺贝尔奖，这是为什么？
Battle Toad
This is no overstatement. In Korea, everything is done in a competition. Everyone is a competitor. Just think about all that pressure, stress, and expectations. It’s an entirely different world and something not many kids can survive. High suicide rates are not the exception.

这不是夸大其词。在韩国，一切都要竞争。每个人都是竞争者。想想身上背负的那些压力，以及来自别人的期望。韩国是一个完全不同的世界，能挺过去的孩子并不多。高自杀率也不例外。
Battle Toad
@Sakura Kumari So you think these people are “losers” like in your previous comments?

所以你认为这些人是“失败者”，就像你之前评论的那样?
Abhi B
It’s actually quite sad. I dunno why people say that Korean education system is one of the best.

这其实很可悲。我不知道为什么人们说韩国的教育体制是最好的之一。
Sakura Kumari
@Battle Toad
You’ll never know if you’re losers or not until the moment you die!!! Or I do not think there are anything like losers or winners in life either. Do we have to compete and compare everything with others? Are you saying just because those kids went to good universities they’re the winners, and the rest are totally losers???

只有到快死的时候，你才能知道自己是不是失败者。或者，我认为生活中也没有输家或赢家。难道我们必须和其他人进行比较吗？你认为仅仅因为这些孩子上了好大学，他们就是赢家，而没有上好大学的就彻底是输家了吗??

@Sakura Kumari a nobel prize isn’t really a measure of how great an education system of a country is

诺贝尔奖并不能真正衡量一个国家的教育体系有多好

South Korea is very modern and very conservative at the same time. Interesting.

韩国非常现代化，同时也非常保守。有意思
Peace
The more conservative,i would say!

我想说韩国更加保守
kai
yeah, sk developed too fast economically for their social standards to catch up. although social standards are getting better, the rate is still slower compared to how fast the economic growth rate was. it’s literally called the han river “miracle” economically, very sad social standards are still slower

韩国经济发展的很快，但他们的社会标准赶不上经济发展的脚步。虽然韩国的社会标准变得越来越好，但于经济发展速度比，还是太慢了。韩国经济被誉为汉江奇迹，遗憾的是韩国的社会标准还是太低
Bibi
@Noseefood Korea is not an emerging country, it’s a highly developed, modern economy with super high standards of living.

韩国不是一个新兴国家，它是一个高度发达的现代经济体，有着超高的生活水平。
deekay13
Same with Japan

和日本一样
Tuan
Asian countries that developed in the second-half of 1900s and developing Asian countries in general tend to be socially conservative, but literally progressive in everything else.

20世纪后半叶发展起来的亚洲发达国家和发展中国家的社会总体上比较保守，但在其他方面实际上却很进步

@Sandhya Raghuram that’s right. Modernization does not have to mean westernization.

正确。现代化并不一定意味着就是西方化。
A. M
@BIJ News yeah that’s just 30 years. Guess how long other countries (i.e the US, England, Germany, Japan) have been a “first world country”; hint longer than a century.

是的，韩国变成发达国家只用了30年，猜猜其他国家，如美国，英国，德国，日本，这些国家用了多久才成为第一世界国家，提示一下，超过一个世纪

In fact the whole country!! Social pressure is really hard ,pathetic

实际上，韩国整个国家幸福度排名都垫底，社会压力真的很大，真是可悲

They live in a high standard society

但他们生活在生活水平很高的社会

A lot of asian countries are like that, societal pressure is quite high in asian countries.

很多亚洲国家都是这样的，亚洲国家的社会压力相当大。

Why does this lead to suicide? And why isn’t the school doin more to prevent this?

为什么这会导致自杀? 为什么学校不采取更多措施来防止这种情况的发生？

yes they are the highest in the studies, but lowest in happines, the country who have the balance is Singapore

是的，韩国人学习成绩是最好的，但幸福感是最低的，新加坡在这两者之间平衡的就不错
Bea and Sanghoon ambw 국제커플
Not just the students… the social happiness index is very bottom I think we (Koreans) need to focus on how to be happy more

不仅仅是学生，整个社会的幸福指数都是垫底的，我认为我们韩国人应该关心如何才能变得更加幸福
조정훈
I’m a freshman. Few months ago, I thought like this, “My biggest flaw is that I couldn’t enter Seoul National University.” It was a shame for me. The fact that I failed to pass the interview phase pushed me down, and I was so ashamed of myself for a while.
Now I am satisfied with my life and living happily

我是大一新生。几个月前，我是这样想的，“我最大缺陷就是没有进首尔大学，”我感到很惭愧。事实上，我是在面试阶段被刷下来的，当时我真的觉得很羞愧。
现在我对自己的生活很满意，生活的也很幸福
Yason Uli
@조정훈 I guess creativity is lacking in every asian countries ofcourse because of it’s EDUCATION SYSTEM!!!!!

我猜亚洲国家缺乏创造力是因为他们的教育系统

I really feel for those kids in Korea (and other Asian countries) who spend their childhood and adolescence studying.. most of them probably don’t have time to pursue their hobbies. That one lady is right, something fundamental about the education system should change!

我真的很同情那些韩国和其他亚洲国家的孩子，他们的童年和青春期一直都在学习。大多数的人可能没有时间去追求自己的爱好。那位女士是对的，教育系统的某些基本面应该要改变一下
Jii Chu
I agree with you. Im in 12grade now, in vietnamese. And i dont have time for my hobby, even time for excercise.

我同意你的看法。我现在在越南读12年级。我没有时间去追求自己的爱好，甚至没有时间锻炼。

I feel like they are extremely smart and trained but they lack social skills from all that time they spent only focusing in their education.

我觉得他们非常聪明，受过很好的训练，但是他们缺乏社交技能，因为他们只专注于学习教育。

The amt of time they have studied in highschool, i wouldn’t study that much in my entire life

我一辈子的学习时间都不会有他们高中学习时间多

I’m glad to live and have done my studies in Switzerland. In here, these sort of rankings don’t exist. You don’t have to be the the best in every class and be admitted to prestigious schools and unis to be successful. The great thing about our system is that after secondary school, you’d either go to highscool or choose to take an apprenticeship (you learn a job, e.g. as a mechanic). In any case you will be studying for a few years and get a diploma once completed. The grest thing is that if you have gotten your working diploma. You can still go to umiversity to study if you wish. You will not be rejected simply because you haven’t attended prestigious schools before or had the top grades.

我很高兴自己是在瑞士学习生活。在这里，排名是没有的。你不需要成为班级里最好的学生，不需要进入最好的大学来获取成功。我们教育制度的一大好处在于中学毕业后，你可以选择去上高中，也可以选择去做学徒。不论你怎么选择，学习几年后，完成学业后就能获得文凭。这个好处在于就算你获得的是职业教育的证书，依然可以去大学学习，只要你自己愿意。不会因为你以前没有上过名校或成绩不是最好的就被拒绝。

Everyone is given the opportunity to evolve intellectualy no matter how they have performed before.
Swiss highschools and universities belong to the best in the world, yet we aren’t restricting access to only the top end students.

每个人都有机会提高自己的知识水平，不管他们之前的表现怎么样
瑞士的高中和大学都是世界上最好的，但我们的大门并不仅仅只为最好的学生开放。

This has a direct correlation with suicide rates in S. Korea, there are lot of people in S. Korea who are not truly happy

这和韩国的自杀率有直接的关系，韩国很多人并不快乐
surfnusa
Even worse for young adult males who have to serve in the SK army for 2 years. Suicide rates are the highest amongst that group because their girlfriends break up with them while they have to serve. Just some info from my SK male cohorts.

更糟糕的是，年轻的韩国成年男性必须在军队服役2年。这一群体的自杀率是最高的，因为他们的女朋友会在他们服役期间和他们分手了。这些信息是我从韩国男性那获得的
Farhanking7864
yup, I’d personally think it’s good to find a mix between studying and enjoying life

没错，我个人认为学习和享受生活之间找到平衡点是很重要的
ncut ca
@surfnusa what? Really? Because their girlfriends break up with them?

什么？真的吗？因为他们的女朋友和他们分手？
Ahasver
I’m sorry but SNU is not where the top 1% go.
It’s more like 0.01% or even less.

不好意思，韩国前1%的学生是进不了首尔大学的
要0.01%甚至更靠前的学生才能进

Honestly college gives me anxiety

老实说，大学生活让我很紧张
Willow Tree
At first, it did for me, too. But when I actually went, I realized it wasn’t bad at all. I actually feel more free than I ever have! I was homeschooled and my life was very small and under my parent’s eyes. I don’t rebel but I enjoy my new freedom!

一开始，我也觉得很紧张。但当我真的要去的时候，我意识到这并不坏。事实上我觉得自己获得了前所未有的自由。我在家上学，我的生活圈很小，而且就在我父母的眼皮子底下。我不是一个叛逆的人，但我真的很享受现在的自由
kyootnshort
In the US, when you go to the uni libraries, it’s generally empty. But when I studied abroad in Korea, reserving a desk in uni libraries was competitive in itself. The way Korean students study is on another level. It’s scary.

在美国，当你要去大学图书馆时，会发现里面通常是很空的。但当我出国到韩国留学时，发现在大学图书馆预定一张桌子都要靠竞争。韩国学生的学习方式真的和美国的不是一个等级，好恐怖

I hope the education system eventually becomes less stressful for young people in East Asian countries

我希望东亚国家的教育体系能减轻年轻人的学习压力
