The <\/span>deportation<\/span><\/a> of 22 Uzbek students by Hanshin University has reverberated through South Korean higher education in recent months, exposing flaws in the country\u2019s management of international students and threatening the country\u2019s ability to attract and retain foreign talent.<\/span><\/p>\n

Last November, the university located in Osan, south of Seoul, told the students private security would escort them to an immigration office under the pretext of receiving their alien registration cards. However, the security guards actually took them directly to Incheon International Airport to board a pre-booked flight to Uzbekistan.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hanshin University initially claimed it expelled the students for failing to submit immigration documents, leaving their dormitory without permission and violating the university\u2019s values.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, four days after the incident, the university\u2019s president <\/span>issued an apology<\/span><\/a>, acknowledging errors in the deportation process and promising preventive measures. He attributed the students’ removal to immigration compliance issues while promising to offer them an opportunity to return.<\/span><\/p>\n

In particular, the university reportedly informed the students that they only needed to maintain a minimum bank balance of <\/span>$7,300 (10 million won)<\/span><\/a> for one day to receive a visa, rather than for at least three months as required by the Ministry of Justice.<\/span><\/p>\n

This incorrect advice led the students to withdraw their money shortly after depositing it, effectively disqualifying them from receiving their visas. Allegedly worried about punitive measures, such as reductions in the university\u2019s foreign student quota, Hanshin University tricked the students into boarding a bus that took them directly to the airport.<\/span><\/p>\n

Recent reports<\/span><\/a> also allege that a Korea Immigration Service official improperly granted visas to these students in exchange for favors and a potential job at Hanshin University. The official now faces accusations of corruption and abuse of power, while officials at the university who were involved in the deportation are <\/span>reportedly<\/span><\/a> facing charges such as confinement and extraterritorial abduction, according to the police.<\/span><\/p>\n

South Korea has sought to increase international student enrollment over the past decade to counter demographic changes and support universities outside Seoul. Initiatives like the \u201c<\/span>Study Korea 300K Project<\/span><\/a>\u201d aim to boost international student numbers and offset declining domestic enrollment.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, the Hanshin University deportations highlight the urgent need for clear regulations and better oversight to prevent abuse of power and ensure consistent management \u2014 less an isolated incident than a symptom of broader systemic challenges.<\/span><\/p>\n

FINANCIAL STRAIN<\/b><\/p>\n

Inconsistent visa guidelines are only one of the structural issues that international students face in South Korea. Financial pressures also compel many students to take on part-time jobs to cover the high cost of living.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rising inflation and escalating real estate prices have made living in the Greater Seoul Metropolitan Area increasingly expensive. South Korea\u2019s consumer prices have risen sharply in recent years, with inflation <\/span>consistently exceeding 3%<\/span><\/a>, pushing up the cost of everyday goods.<\/span><\/p>\n

Real estate prices in Seoul have soared to some of the highest levels globally, making it difficult for international students to find affordable housing. Rent has risen significantly, with deposits for a one-room apartment averaging about <\/span>$7,300<\/span><\/a>, while the average monthly rent is about <\/span>$535<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

With these high living expenses and other daily necessities, many students feel forced to work long hours outside their studies. They often take jobs in the <\/span>service and retail sectors<\/span><\/a>, which are not always well-regulated and typically offer low wages.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a result, students face a constant struggle to make ends meet while complying with strict visa restrictions on working hours.<\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, having to work while keeping up with their studies negatively impacts their Korean language skills. Only <\/span>48%<\/span><\/a> of international graduate students meet their universities\u2019 language proficiency standards, severely limiting their post-graduation job prospects.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a result<\/span><\/a>, only about 8% of international graduates find employment in South Korea, while about 28% return to their home countries and 52% remain in unknown post-graduation situations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ultimately, these challenges put international students\u2019 futures at risk and deprive South Korean employers of prospective international talent, which the country needs amid its aging and shrinking population.<\/span><\/p>\n

EXPLOITATIVE PILOT PROGRAMS<\/b><\/p>\n

In an attempt to address the challenges faced by international students and meet labor demands in specific regions, South Korea has implemented pilot programs like region-specific visas, such as the <\/span>F-2-R<\/span><\/a> visa and short-term work permits for parents of international students.<\/span><\/p>\n

While these programs offer potential benefits to some students and their families, their design and implementation can create perceptions of exploitation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Region-specific visas require international students to live and work in areas designated by the government \u2014 typically regions experiencing population declines and economic downturns. In return, they gain residence permits and potential pathways to permanent residency.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, these permits often require students to work in specific industries or sectors to support local economies. Students may feel pressured into accepting these conditions, limiting their choices and potentially locking them into jobs that might not align with their academic goals.<\/span><\/p>\n

Short-term work permits for parents of international students further complicate matters. The justice ministry\u2019s pilot program allows <\/span>parents to work for up to eight months<\/span><\/a> in farming or fishing villages to cover their children\u2019s tuition fees.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although this may help alleviate some financial pressures, it can also be seen as exploitative. Agriculture sector jobs tend to be labor-intensive while offering <\/span>limited rights and protections<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

These government initiatives prioritize immediate labor needs over academic objectives and long-term careers that would boost national interests, risking a mismatch between work and educational goals. The result can be an exploitative environment where families feel obligated to compromise their long-term aspirations for immediate financial relief.<\/span><\/p>\n

FUTURE IMPACT<\/b><\/p>\n

The forced deportation of Uzbek students from Hanshin University will likely have immediate repercussions on South Korea\u2019s international student enrollment. Growing skepticism about visa management and exploitation may dissuade prospective international students and their families from considering South Korea as a study destination.<\/span><\/p>\n

If unchecked, this perception will threaten the steady growth of international enrollment that universities rely on for financial stability and to fill academic programs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Moreover, South Korea will face a lasting decline in international student numbers, exacerbating existing demographic challenges. With fewer international students, the country\u2019s aging population and shrinking domestic enrollment will <\/span>further strain the education system<\/span><\/a> and prevent universities from maintaining their global competitiveness.<\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, this could hinder South Korea\u2019s ability to meet labor demands in critical sectors such as health care and skilled trades.<\/span><\/p>\n

These incidents also pose a long-term threat to South Korea\u2019s international reputation as an educational hub. International students and their families may view the country as prioritizing immediate labor needs over academic and career objectives. This perception shift may prompt students to seek more supportive and transparent educational environments elsewhere, further reducing South Korea\u2019s attractiveness.<\/span><\/p>\n

Moving forward, South Korea will likely need new regulations that prioritize student welfare and ensure clearer visa guidelines to prevent exploitation, rebuild trust and improve international student management.<\/span><\/p>\n

Aligning educational objectives with labor market needs will also be crucial to creating a supportive system where international students can thrive academically and economically.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, with President Yoon Suk-yeol all but a lame duck following his party\u2019s <\/span>defeat in parliamentary elections<\/span><\/a> last month, it remains to be seen if the ROK can pursue the necessary reforms to rebuild trust with international students.<\/span><\/p>\n
