I've always been curious about this. I know that with libel laws being what they are and all that, it might not be possible, but there must be something.

I know that word of mouth and name recognition are usually what guide parents to put their kids in one hagwon over another, but anybody know of some kind of consumer reports-style website?

I'm not looking for dirt about schools or anything, just something I've been wondering about.

No, I'm not kidding. I guess that displays your understanding of the environment in which you live, doesn't it?

The resources for parents to check on the 학원 in there area are countless. This is the most wired country in the world and people on this esteemed board of professionals doubt that they discuss the topic on line? Incredible.

All sarcasm aside, I expect nothing more from Dave's.

Well I, for one, am amazed to see this. Can we blacklist our hagwons on there? Would they even care what we have to say?
