This book enables Western scholars and educators to recognize the
roles and contributions of shadow education/hakwon education in an
international context. The book allows readers to redefine the
traditional and limited understanding of the background
success behind Korean schooling and to expand their
perspectives on Korean hakwon education, as well as shadow
education in other nations with educational power, such as Japan,
China, Singapore, and Taiwan. Kim exhorts readers and researchers
to examine shadow education as an emerging research inquiry in the
context of postcolonial and worldwide curriculum studies.
