- The vast majority of language institutes in Korea belong to a chain or franchise system. Most of these schools are individually owned, and some are owned directly by the chain or franchise head office. Individual franchised schools are typically established by a Korean (or a Korean couple) who decide to open a language school and then look at the various franchise options that are available in Korea. The franchise head office provides the curricula, marketing materials, and often a trained Academic Supervisor. The school owners pay a monthly franchise fee to the franchise head office, but retain control over the day to day operations of the school. These schools, as well as any others that offer courses in any subject to paying young learners, are what Koreans and foreign teachers call "hakwons" or "hogwons."
