Another linguistic misperception. Koreans, that is unless they travel to China to study Chinese, learn traditional "hanja" (汉字)during their schooling. The number required to learn shifts depending on who is making such decisions, but the types don't change.
North Koreans learn far fewer than those in the south, though I don't know whether the shape, i.e. simplified or traditional, follows mainland China or not. |
You are quite right about South Koreans. They learn traditional characters, but most people don't really know that many anyways.
North Koreans do not study Chinese characters at all. They completely removed them from their education. |
