Mary,
i'm sincerely sorry and want to apologize to you, for sounding too harsh.
it's not the way for people to resolve issues.

i stand correcting my own mistakes in manners.

please understand that i feel you and Michael both brought out very good issues, from your own points of view.

you did mention that only good teachers should be welcomed in korea.

i just want to ask, how can a society expect good teachers, while making racist policies on hiring teachers in the first place?

had it ever dawned on people in the schools in korea, that some really good teachers might be those, who the schools tend to discriminate against?

many people of a wide range of diversities, have been hurt by many factors in their own societies, and unfortunately in foreign societies as well.

not everyone teaching in foreign countries are people who can't get a job in their own countries.

...maybe some, but that would be an over-statement to say that all foreigners teaching fall under this category of the unemployable.

here in america, many people immigrate here for work, education or a better chance at life.
by doing this, should people in american society, view such individuals as losers from their own countries of origin?

i guess you're a lovely lady who has a kind heart, and teally doesn't mean to hurt anyone or insult them.

you have good reasons for the statement you made.
i can respect them.
