"스승" is a Korean term that translates to "teacher" or "mentor." It refers to someone who imparts knowledge, skills, and values to students. In many cultures, including Korean, the role of a 스승 is highly respected, as they guide learners in both academic and personal development. In traditional settings, a 스승 often plays a significant role in shaping a student's character and future. This relationship can extend beyond the classroom, fostering a lifelong bond. The concept of a 스승 is closely related to the idea of 교육 (education) and the importance of 멘토링 (mentoring) in personal growth.
