Baekdu Hagwon, Korean international school in Sumiyoshi-ku, Osaka, Japan
Baekdu Hagwon provides education from kindergarten through high school, incorporating Japanese textbooks while maintaining Korean cultural instruction in its curriculum.
The institution began operations in March 1946 when the Keonguk Industrial School and Keonguk Higher Girls' School were established by the Baekdu Association.
Students participate in Korean language classes, geography lessons, history studies, Taekwondo training, and Samulnori performances as part of their ethnic education.
The school maintains small class sizes of 15 to 20 students per instructor and offers specialized courses in Japanese, Korean, and English languages.
In 2021, Baekdu Hagwon implemented menstrual leave for high school students, becoming one of the first educational institutions in Japan to adopt this policy.
