Education in Korea was based on Confucian classics for over a millennium, but then began to be replaced by Western-style learning as the country became in contact with Western culture after the Japan-Korea Treaty of 1876, primarily through Protestant Christian missionaries.

Towards their ultimate goal of propagating Christianity in Asia, missionaries proceeded indirectly by establishing mission schools along with their churches.

It had diverse impacts such as popularization of the Korean alphabet (hangeul), the diffusion of modernism, the abolition of the caste system, gender equality and the instillation of a national consciousness.
