Instead, they are distributed randomly into eight classes in each year, and select their second foreign language among Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, and French.

Middle school grades, and interviews along with future scholastic plans are taken into consideration in order to select 160 students per year. The 160 students are then divided into eight classes, which consist of roughly twenty students each. Almost all of the students lives in the dormitory and they go home only on friday. The reputation of the school in Busan is relatively high, and many students choose the school for the reason that they can study with excellent students.
