hagwon
A place in South Korea where kids get their brains beaten into submission. It’s basically a torture chamber for students who want to be smart, but don’t know how to handle stress.
My brother went to hagwon and came out with a headache and a bad attitude.
My friend’s hagwon teacher yelled at her for forgetting her homework.
I heard the hagwon teacher at my cousin’s school once said, 'If you don’t pass, you’re dead!'
