| Abstract: | This article examines the origin and evolution of education fever in South Korea in terms of the cultural history of Korea. To discuss this study systematically, three research questions are stated. First, what is Korean education fever in contemporary South Korean society? Second, when is the origin of Korean education fever in Korean cultural history? Last, how Korean education fever evolved in the history of Korean culture? In order to defend the research questions, the author uses a content analysis method. As for the limitations of this study, Korean education fever will be reviewed from the Three Kingdoms to the Chosun Dynasty eras, that is, discussed by dividing it into three periods: ancient, medieval, and pre-modern times. At the education level, elite or higher education will be limited. The main topics to be discussed in this paper will be national higher education institutions and civil service examination systems related to Korean education fever. The significance of this study is to provide worthy resources and basic theories regarding the origin and evolution of Korean education fever for the educational theorists and practitioners of the West and the East. |
