Episode 174: Private Academy (2)

Click-

The sound of tea and tables colliding.

I opened my mouth slowly, looking at the silently rising car fog.

“A private school?”

Then the man in front of me. Dok Go-gyeong nodded her head with a stiff face.

"Yes. Yes. I want you to be active as our private academy, that is, the government’s private academy.”

Then he looked at me with eager eyes and waited for my answer.

Well… As you can see, the stupid questions Dokgo-kyung had asked me just before. It was like

‘It must have been to make me float.’

However… When I thought about it, it was a bit ridiculous.

Whatever the intention, Dok Go-gyeong's previous act was an act that deceived me by disguised as foolishness.

Hmm… I just wanted to leave my seat and get up right now.

‘It’s probably from the government.’

Still, it was right to take a friendly stance for now.

Because there is nothing stupider than making a decision driven by emotions.

‘Well, before that, I should have received a certain apology for Dok Go-gyeong’s actions.’

If you hold your head stiffly saying that you can't even do that.

‘It just happens without asking or asking.’

I slowly opened my mouth towards Dokgo-gyeong, who was waiting for my answer with a look of anticipation.

“Was this the ‘special’ menu you were talking about? If that is the case, it is quite disappointing.”

Then, Dok Go-gyeong's expression turned to bewilderment.

‘Because anyone who has thoughts would know what he was doing.’

After making such a bewildered expression for a moment, he immediately looked at me with a hardened face.

"that is… Since the matter is a matter, I wanted to confirm the teacher's true intentions at least once. Sorry. If you were offended, I apologize formally.”

Seeing him apologizing to me with a tense face softened my heart to some extent.

At least I could confirm that he wasn't the kind of person who denied his faults because of his face and prestige.

‘You can never work with someone who doesn’t.’

I nodded and opened my mouth.

“What happened? After all, it's already past. By the way, I'd like to hear more about that private academy... It's because I can't quite understand just the name."

Then, Dokgo-gyeong, who had a firm expression on his face, looked at me with reflection.

“Oh, yes. This is a policy that we have decided to introduce to alleviate the private education problem a little bit. Like private pirates, it refers to those who receive the title of government and act to prevent the overheating of the private education market. It's not an official word, but... .”

He then began to explain in detail what is called 'Private Academy'.

Private Academy.

It is a policy similar to granting its own ships the right to seize and sink ships of competing countries by issuing a private license by the government of a country that lacks naval power.

[School expenses that twist parents' backs... An average of 160,000 won per month][School fee fixing yesterday, not today... Lack of related regulations]

[Investigation of unfair practices such as the Fair Trade Commission and school fees rigging… Effectiveness?]

or fixing high school fees.

[The whole of the foreign high school exam paper leaked… The teacher and the head of the academy co-wrote the crime]

[Why did the son of the doctor who leaked the test papers go to an illegal private tutoring school?]

[Investigation of unregistered academy for ‘suspicion of releasing leaked test papers’]

Those who mobilize expedient methods to intensify the suffering and deprivation of the common people. and.

[Director of Incheon City S Academy ‘A kind principal by day, a terrifying beast by night’]

[Most of the principals of Gangnam large academy are in 'high arrears']

[A famous lecturer, Mr. A, was imprisoned for 'prostitution of minors']

It is to remove from the market those who are covering their immorality with excellent teaching ability.

Anyway, it wasn't like the private pirates did in the past, they didn't bombard the opposing ships or engage in hand-to-hand combat.

When times change, there is a solution that suits the times.

‘Controlling the rate of increase in school fees through fixed academy fees.’

‘Establishment of an elementary, middle, and high school internet lecture system to bridge the educational gap according to region and income.’

‘Improvement of learning efficiency through linkage with public education institutions.’

The killing point of this policy was to kill the main culprits who made the private education market bloated through weapons tailored to the education market.

Hmm... It was quite possible. The school fee is fixed. This is the policy that our academy is implementing in the first place, and the establishment of the online lecture system is also... It's because I had a guideline while building the hermit crab academy system.

so.

‘Advertising effect through government campaign’

‘Providing all the necessary information to build an Internet lecture system’

‘Tax savings according to the degree of policy participation.’

‘Support from government funds used to address inequality in education.’

Considering only the counter-reward offered by the government... It was pretty daring.

Because I knew that every time an organization with the name of ‘government’ moved, an enormous amount of goods moved together.

‘Of course, that does not mean that I will accept Dok Go-gyeong’s proposal.’

I opened my mouth slowly, looking at the Dokgo-gyeong.

“Hmm… I heard you well. However… There is one thing that bothers me.”

OK.

"Yes? What part… ?”

Dok Go-kyung, who was drinking tea, received my words with a puzzled expression.

As if a little startled by my sudden words, a few drops of tea dripped down his hand.

I looked at him and tapped the table with his finger.

“Nothing else… You used the word 'authorized' a while ago, but that part caught my heart. Of course, I understand the purpose, but if I make a mistake, I think the government can be criticized for giving up the public education system.”

It was an important issue.

If the government comes forward and says that it will bring private education into the public education market, who are still hearing that private education is taking the place of public education, then to those who are still trying to rip off the government with their lights on. Because it was an excuse.

‘How the accredited academy is selected is also an important issue… ,'

However?

“Ah, that’s the part. Don't worry. Still, there is a way to solve that part.”

Dok Go-kyung, who heard my words, only shook her head with an expression without a single worry.

'what? this person? Don't you know what's dangerous?'

“… If you don't mind, can I hear what that method is?"

When I asked, he happily nodded and opened his mouth.

“Selection through open competition of the company concerned. and publicization of private capital through him. That is our way.”

Yes?

Publicization of private capital?

For a moment, he looked at him with a puzzled expression.

Then he nodded his head as if he knew it.

“Looking at your face, you can’t believe it. But you will have to believe it. It’s actually happening.”

“… Is that possible? No, I've always heard about the privatization of public companies, but it's the first time the reverse has happened... .”

“Because I need it. And there were also results that it was the method with the fewest side effects. Well, it's not that there aren't people expressing concern within the government... This time, I decided not to worry about anything like that. If we don't get the education right now, we'll never have a chance in the future."

“So, sir… Would you like to go down the same road with us?”

* * * *

silence for a long time.

After hearing Dok Go-gyeong's suggestion, I could feel the heat rising from the depths of my heart.

However.

‘You can’t solve everything with emotions.’

I shook my head.

Nara is the body that is already in charge of dozens of academies, instructors, and staff. I couldn't take a risky road swayed by a moment's emotions.

‘For now, I’ll put an answer on hold and later… .'

But then.

"Teacher. Why is the decline of public education and the excessive growth of the private education market a problem?”

Dokgo-kyung, who was waiting for my answer while fiddling with the cold teacup, suddenly spoke to me.

I looked at his face calmly.

Unlike his cold face, his eyes were filled with heat, like water just before boiling.

Well, it was strange to ask such a question out of the blue, but it was polite to answer the question.

“It will be the succession of the gap between the rich and the poor and the deepening of polarization through him. Probably, the more shaken up in public education, the fewer people will go up.”

Then Lord Dokgo nodded his head broadly and opened his mouth.

"Yes. Yes. The ladder that can go up from the bottom, even that weak ladder, was taken up by others. Because of this, of course, my son, and even his son's son. that you can't go up there. Wouldn’t that be the problem?”

And then he continued talking.

“Haha, when I say things like this, some people say. That’s something that can be surpassed if only you have great abilities and no-oh-oh-oh power.”

Looking at his cynical expression, it seemed that he could only vaguely see what kind of thoughts he had in his heart.

Well, there were people like that.

Those who blaspheme and trample on the lives of those who have been so-called “successful” as evidence of the lives of the other “unsuccessful” people.Those who have not even been able to step on the corner of success even themselves, yet force others to achieve success.

I also met a lot of such people.

And it seemed that Dokgo-gyeong had seen as many people like me as I did.

so.

“But you know. If this state continues, our country will become hell. So before that happens, it is the idea of ​​me and the government to at least build a fallen ladder. Once you can build a ladder well, you will be able to build a strong bridge as well.”

It would be like throwing up a fever like this.

"Hmm… … .”

I looked into his burning eyes and slowly gathered my thoughts.

Why do Korean students study hard?

Why are 2,674,227 elementary school students, 1,381,334 middle school students, and 1,669,699 high school students across the country pouring their nosebleeds into their studies day and night?

The reason is... to go to a good university.

This cannot be denied.

So, why do they want to go to college like that?

academic achievement? Self-realization? Or to change this rotten world?

puck

The reason students and parents, or even our society, truly pursue a university is because it is an essential requirement for having a 'good' job, yes, a job where you can dream of the future.

so.

[19 private universities with an average annual tuition of 10 million won or more]

[University Tuition Fee, Ingol Tower, Beyond Woogol Tower]

[Bend your back to graduate from National University’s ‘Ingol Tower’]

It is not enough to pile up the bones of a dead cow, and it must be that they are sucking the bones of their parents up to the marrow and vomiting them out in the sky.

It's very sad though.

Only then can you get a good job.

Only then will you be able to make more money than others.

so be it though.

‘Because I think I can live like a human being.’

In other words, it can be seen that the specter of materialism and universal capitalism resides in the belly of modern college entrance exam education.

Therefore, it is by no means easy to break the private education system and the competitive entrance examination education.

To go that route first. A society in which one can dream of the future without graduating from a good university, furthermore, a society in which a person is not judged as worthless in life or character just because he earns little money, cannot be converted into a society in which life has no purpose and value.

For such a society... Because it requires a general consensus.

But what if this recognition is not preceded?

What if a society where everyone supports the competitive entrance exam system and thinks that standing above others is the reward of a 'right' person continues?

then… As long as those who are obsessed with success are the majority of society, there will be no real normalization of public education.

There are a limited number of ‘good’ workplaces, and it is only those who have graduated from ‘prestigious universities’ who occupy that limited position.

However?

“What would you like to do, Mr. Kim Jun-young?”

this person. Are you saying that we will change that kind of society right now?
