Yonsei University...
the land of the prodigious. driven by themselves, their parents, or fear, yonsei students perform in their field with alarming specialty. one can see assiduity printed across their forehead as they haste around campus. the pressure builds and at night on many a side street in seoul one can easily find the corollary: a student hanging on a couple friends shoulders stumbling back home, or off to the side spewing out the 3 bottles of soju that recently replaced stress with inibriation.
most of them know some english, that key to a better future. the pianists here are absolutely astounding. they're on a completely dfferent level than the student pianists ive met anywhere else. the language teachers here know at least japenese, korean, and english. their various inculcated aptitudes can make one feel inadequate from time to time.
how are these students so smart? like the 9 year old daughter at my hasukchip, they start english, piano, korean, and other studies as young as possible and then are pushed really hard. ive been told high school is the apex of the severity (8am-12 midnight studying). and if admited to one of the unanimously lauded univerities, the sweat is off their back and the pace slows. but if they dont make it...well, apparently the suicide rate for post-highschool and precollegiate teens is pretty high.
