Abstract
In the early 1920s, the Government-General of Korea imposed an age restriction policy for admission to common schools. Consequently, older children from wealthy families were excluded, leading to significant disruption. The GovernmentGeneral of Korea established short-term schools attached to common schools. These schools delivered the curriculum up to the 4th grade over the course of two years, transferred high-achieving students into the 5th grade of common school. However, as these measures still could not absorb all overage children, local elites established private academic institutes. These institutes aimed to cultivate academic ability in preparation for secondary school entrance examinations. If the objective of attending the attached short-term schools was the irregular acquisition of a common school educational background, then the objective of attending the private academic institutes was the acquisition of academic ability as a means of bypassing the common school system.
