Bridging Humanities and Science – Focusing on the Essence with a Scientific Approach

Headmaster Kim’s educational philosophy emphasizes that golf is not merely about mastering swing techniques but, fundamentally, a game to be enjoyed.He challenges traditional golf instruction, which often prioritizes swing practice, advocating instead for a more holistic approach where players first experience the game—whether on a simulator or on the real course—before refining their skills through targeted training

Furthermore, since golf is a score-based game, he stresses the importance of setting clear objectives. To achieve these goals, golfers must carefully design their own golf lifestyle, considering both the time and financial investment required. He also believes that tracking and quantifying practice efforts and performance data is crucial for skill improvement. Rather than relying solely on personal motivation and effort, he emphasizes the power of community-driven growth, where competition and rewards foster consistent progress.
