The drop in 2024 should be interpreted with caution, as the rules were changed after the 2023 peak to allow applications to up to three private schools (where previously there had been no limit).

Many outlets explain this trend as being linked to the schools’ differing responses during pandemic: while private schools allowed students to attend in-person classes about four days a week, public schools generally offered only two to three days.

In South Korea the admission competition ratio for private elementary schools has dramatically increased during and post-pandemic. In Seoul, it rose from 2.1 : 1 in 2020 to 6.8 : 1 in 2021, 11.7 : 1 in 2022, and peaked at 12.6 : 1 in 2023, before dropping to 7.8 : 1 in 2024.
