The research results show that the two figures have similarities and differences. Kartini was born into a Javanese aristocratic family, she studied at a European elementary school.

After completing his education, Choi Yong-shin devoted his knowledge to teaching children in Saemgol Village. Choi Yong-shin also had the idea of equality, including that women and men have the same rights and responsibilities to fight for goodness, Choi Yong-shin's name was also immortalized in Korea nationally.
