South Korea has a controversial system for celebrities and other public figures where they're granted special admissions into major universities, simply for being a star. This has sparked numerous debates on how unfair it is for other students who dedicate their entire lives for university, only to find that their seats got stolen by 'ghost students'. With this in mind, Yoo Seung Ho decided to reject special admissions offers from prestigious universities. Representatives of his agency revealed, "He's received special admissions offers from a few colleges in Korea, but he respectfully declined all of them. Rumors regarding his special admissions to a certain college as a political diplomacy major are unfounded." The representatives continued to explain, "He doesn't have the time to attend school due to his busy schedule. Even if he were to accept those offers, he would not be able to keep up with his studies. After deciding that he did not want this to affect other students, he has decided to forego college for the time being." In addition, they stated, "College will be something Seung Ho will decide on his own when he's older and has more time. We hope that this decision will allow at least one more student to be admitted to college. This decision has already been concluded after much discussion with him and his parents." Oftentimes, stars who accept special admissions offers are put on the chopping block for various issues relating to whether they actually deserve to be admitted. One of the more frequent arguments netizens bring up is that stars tend to prioritize their careers over academic attendance and study. As such, Yoo Seung Ho's decision (and explanation) is one that's being applauded by netizens and industry officials alike. His company concluded, "Yoo Seung Ho is satisfied with his decision and supports those that are taking the college entrance exams this year." Source + Photos: Everyday Economy via Naver
