Recently, a noteworthy survey revealed the unique career aspirations of Korean elementary school students. According to a report by Yonhap News Agency on the 9th, the "2024 Korea Welfare Survey Analysis Report" released by the Korea Institute of Health and Social Research and the Seoul National University Institute of Social Welfare showed that in March 2024, a research team conducted a survey on future career choices among 330 Korean elementary school students in grades four to six, requiring students to choose two careers they want to pursue in the future in order of priority.
The survey results are surprising, with 43.22% of surveyed students ranking careers in the fields of culture, art, and sports as their first choice, covering various professions such as actors, singers, athletes, directors, planners, painters, artists, designers, writers, and journalists. This indicates that nearly half of South Korean elementary school students aspire to become artists or athletes.
At the same time, the survey also showed a tendency towards other career choices. About 10.02% of students choose careers related to healthcare, social welfare, and religion, such as doctors, nurses, pharmacists, nutritionists, social welfare workers, etc. Education related professions (such as teachers) rank third with a proportion of 9.35%, legal and administrative related professions (such as judges, prosecutors, lawyers, and civil servants) rank fourth with a proportion of 7.3%, and catering service related professions (6.76%) rank fifth.
Further data shows that 21.53% of surveyed students ranked careers in the fields of culture, arts, and sports as the second most desired career in their minds. Moreover, approximately 41.51% of primary school students believe that their likelihood of pursuing their first priority career in the future is "high", while 11.73% believe it is "very high", reflecting their aspirations and confidence in these professions.
From a sociological perspective, there may be many reasons for this phenomenon. On the one hand, the influence of the media cannot be underestimated. With the development of Internet technology, the speed of information dissemination is accelerating, and the star effect is increasingly prominent. Children are naturally attracted to a variety of cultural products through various channels and crave to stand in the spotlight themselves. On the other hand, the family environment also shapes their values to a certain extent. Parents may hope to enhance their children's overall quality by cultivating their interests and hobbies, but inadvertently strengthen their aspirations for specific industries.
However, this survey also reflects some potential issues. For example, education related professions rank third with a proportion of only 9.35%, while legal and administrative jobs rank fourth. This means that there may be an imbalance in the talent structure in the future, which is not good for the long-term development of the country.
In the face of such a situation, all sectors of society should pay more attention. The government can introduce relevant policies to encourage diversified development of young people, while schools should strengthen career planning education and guide students to make reasonable choices based on their own characteristics. At the same time, parents also need to adjust their mentality and respect their children's wishes, rather than blindly pursuing so-called "success" standards.
