South Korea is grappling with a growing crisis in its education system as reports of teacher assaults on students have surged to alarming levels. According to recent data, the number of incidents involving teachers physically or verbally abusing students has increased significantly, with some cases even resulting in serious injuries. The rise in teacher assaults has been linked to a shift in the country's approach to student discipline, which has become more lenient in recent years. Experts warn that this trend could have long-term consequences for students' emotional well-being and academic performance, and are calling for a return to stricter discipline measures.
