Are These English Test Questions Really for South Korean Children Aged 5–6?

Are These English Test Questions Really for South Korean Children Aged 5–6?

This screenshot is claimed to show English test questions given to five- and six-year-old children at a private academy in South Korea. The questions appear to cover synonyms, grammar and vocabulary that may seem advanced for that age group. Is this an example of excessive academic pressure, or is the claim missing important context about the class level?

Do we know whether this screenshot reflects a normal academy test, or an unusually advanced class for children already learning English?

Is there any reliable source showing the test's actual grade level and whether it was meant for typical learners?

The age claim is what makes it striking; synonyms, grammar, and vocabulary can look very different depending on how the questions are framed.

Advanced-looking questions alone do not automatically prove excessive pressure. A private academy may be teaching beyond the level expected in ordinary classrooms.

It would help to compare the full test, the academy's goals, and how children are assessed before treating one screenshot as the whole picture.
