Busan Japanese School (釜山日本人学校, Korean: 부산일본인학교), formerly known in English as Pusan Japanese School (PJS), is a Japanese international school in Suyeong District, Busan, South Korea,[1] 12 kilometres (7.5 mi) from central Busan,[2] and in proximity to Gwangalli Beach (a.k.a. Gwangan Beach). The Busan Japanese School is the Japanese overseas school that is physically closest to Japan itself.[3]
It was established on October 1, 1975 (Showa 50).[1]
In 2013 the school had 13 teachers teaching 47 students, with 38 in elementary school and nine in junior high school.[4] By 2017 the student population was declining as Japanese companies sent fewer employees abroad in general and as the economy declined in Busan; Japanese companies by that time preferred assigning employees to Seoul.[5]
