Abstract: The purpose of this research is to introduce and analyze key insights into South Korea’s unique field of gifted education, with a specific focus on software-gifted classes and the process of their integration into the education landscape. This study spans a seven-year period, divided into two parts: the first part examines insights gained during the establishment of these classes, while the second part derives structural relationships by analyzing students’ perceptions during the recent three-year expansion of software-gifted classes. The findings of this research provide essential insights into the operation and expansion of software-gifted classes, highlighting the pivotal role of the educational process and content. Furthermore, the study indicates that the interests of gifted students significantly influence their achievements and career development, thereby paving the way for a sustainable future.
