My advice to you cat is to avoid South Korea all together. There have b en more posts on this board and others about the hazards of working in SK then I can easily count. Considering the small size of SK for there to be so many complaints about working there says it all. SK is not somewhere you want to teach. As with anyplace you have good places to work, and bad, however by and large SK has far too many complaints about it for it to be a safe bet if you ask me. I would advise against China as well. Japan is a better option, you should look into teaching there, but avoid SK I say.
