How Long Do Korean Kids Study?

Published in Education System 1 min read

Korean kids' study time varies depending on their school level.

Here's a breakdown of typical school hours:

  • Primary School: Students generally attend from 08:00 to around 13:00.
  • Middle and High School: Students usually attend from 08:00 to approximately 16:30.

Therefore, primary school students typically spend around 5 hours in school, while middle and high school students spend approximately 8.5 hours. This does not include extracurricular activities, private academies (hagwons), or personal study time, which can significantly increase the total study time for Korean students.
