Re: "Wilshire Korea"

My wife and I arrived in Pusan Korea in June of 2008. As of this writing it is now January 2009. Our contract was with Wit & Sam (Yonsei FLV English) which has been a very bad Hogwan. I'm not going to talk about that in this post however. If you want details about why you should never work for Kim Hunho's "Wit & Sam" in Haeundae (we worked in Namcheon-dong) - send me an email or message on these boards.

Now how this relates to Wilshire Pusan -
Mr. Kim Hunho after completely and utterly failing to attract enough students to our school, decided to sell the school that my wife Erin and I were working at in Namcheon-dong to a Mr. Jake Sohn who apparently has a couple of these Hogwans in Pusan - including a big school in Seomyeon I'm told.

After 7 months of constant arguing and bickering over every penny and whether we can use the heaters or air conditioners to save money we're at our end! If what you say is true and this is the same Wilshire Korea that we just extended our contracts with which screwed you out of severance pay for 3 years - I'd like to know about it and we'll just get on a plane and head home now!

I'd appreciate a response to this message to be certain that it was the same owner and people in 2004 (and company) before we move hastily!

Yes, I understand how you feel and feel sorry about it... I personally was in big trouble with "Wilshire Korea" in Pusan over my severance pay for 3 years and even the Korean lawyer was of no help.
