Abstract
The purpose of this study was to inquire the after-school class operation experience of public kindergarten teachers and to understand the meaning and context inherent in it. For this purpose, a narrative research method was conducted targeting kindergarten after-school program teachers from April to September 2023. Participants in this study were teachers who run after-school courses in public kindergartens with more than 10 years of teaching experience.
 In the two participant narratives, their experiences were organized into three themes: conversion, balance, and discovery. First, the transition from curriculum teacher to after-school teacher, second, the balance between caring and education, and finally, the discovery of finding the value of after-school courses were found. This study was able to understand the after-school experience of public kindergarten teachers, and tried to find implications as basic data for the development of teacher professionalism.
