 The YU Department of Archaic Sino-Korean Education once again proved their unparalleled class.

 YU fostered the most number of passing students for the third consecutive year with the 2016 secondary school teacher examination in Sino-Korean education. Thirty-two were selected nationwide, from which eight were from the YU Department of Archaic Sino-Korean Education. YU accounted for a whopping 25% of all of those who passed the examination.

 The YU Department of Archaic Sino-Korean Education had nine pass in 2015 and eight in 2014, thus being recognized as the breeding center for Sino-Korean education. Once again, it had the most number of passing in the nation among Sino-Korean education and Sino-Korean studies among 20 universities including Sungkyunkwan University, Dankook University, and Korea University, thus demonstrating its unparalleled class.

 Those who passed the test from the YU Department of Archaic Sino-Korean Education were not limited to a specific area, but all around the nation. This year's passers included Jung Jung-in (24) and Ryu In-ah (24) in Gangwon, Lee Eun-young (31) and Cho Yoon-hee (29) in Chungbuk, Song Jae-myeong (35) and Lee Jung-hee 932) in Gyeongnam, Kim Hye-jin (30) in Jeonnam, and Kim Jun-hwan (30) in Jeju for a total of eight.

 This was possible through the distinguished education program of the YU Department of Archaic Sino-Korean Education and the material and emotional support of professors and senior alumni. The YU Department of Archaic Sino-Korean Education students received focus education from advising professors upon enrollment, while also participating in systematic education programs such as graduation sampum program, special vacation lectures, and class coaching from senior alumni.

 Jung Jung-in, who passed in the Gangwon area said, "The Sino-korean focus study guided by the professors during vacation helped a lot in improving my ability to read Sino-Korean," and added, "In addition to the curriculum, the 'graduation sampum program' that must be passed for graduation not only helped me gain knowledge on my major, but also helped improve my qualifications and character as a teacher."

 The 'current teacher alumni coaching program', which has now become a tradition in this department, was another secret for recording the highest number of passers for three consecutive years by the YU Department of Archaic Sino-Korean Education. Senior alumni who graduated and are working as teachers put everything else aside to help their juniors preparing for examinations.

 Those who passed said, "The advice from my seniors helped considerably as they gave tips on preparing for tests, second class demonstrations, and preparing for interviews." They added, "We will now become mentors from next year so that we can continue this tradition and help our juniors pass."

 YU Department of Archaic Sino-Korean Education Dean Jung Eun-jin (43) said, "A tradition of senior alumni acting as mentors and juniors following the lead of their seniors has taken root naturally," and added, "We will spare no support so that students who dream of becoming teachers can concentrate solely on their examinations."
