      Pros

      It is supposedly the best design school in South Korea but the administration is extremely authoritarian and patriarchal, consequently, many employees are dissatisfied with unfair university policies but are too scared and powerless to be able to do anything about it.

      Cons

      This is essentially a for profit university run by an aging and authoritarian owner and his coterie of about 30 so called advisors.
