Mystery Surrounds Unidentified Hagwon Director in Seoul’s Elite Tutoring Hub

Daechi-dong, a southern Seoul neighbourhood, is renowned for its concentration of hagwons (private tutoring institutes). Despite the bustling evening time filled with students in June 2024, the director of the Hagwon in Daechi-dong remains unidentified, as current public records fail to verify their identity.

Daechi-dong's reputation as a 'hagwon zone' is well-earned, with countless students flocking to the area for evening classes. Despite the thriving tutoring culture, the leadership of one prominent Hagwon in the area remains elusive. As of 2024, public records do not mention or confirm the director's name, leaving the position shrouded in mystery.

While Daechi-dong continues to be a hub for private tutoring, the director of one of its most notable Hagwons remains unconfirmed, adding an intriguing layer to the neighbourhood's educational landscape.
