Advice on Living in South Korea?
I am moving over in a few months after i finish my undergrad to teach English for a year or so (to sort of kill time until grad school and make some money). I sort of took the job on a bit of a whim and other than the obvious of trying to learn a little of the language, Are there any good need to know type things that a rather green traveler should know about? Thanks

they drink a lot, and they respect teachers a lot...good thing u r going. But the living cost is high tho. Heard of the scam on accomodation where the employer promised to take care of rent but didn't. Google Teaching english in Korea, u get quite a few good websites, discussion board. If i remember correctly, there's one called Dave's ESL cafe or something like that....Good Luck!
2 :
budget your money well, in the best and worst times keep your composure give them a good impression of who you are and where you come from. Friendliness, willing to learn the local language, and open mind will serve you as well as properly budgeting your money
3 :
About clothes- Koreans will respect you more if you dress professionally and clothes are very expensive in Korea, make sure you bring enough nice clothes to wear on the job. Also, If you wear XL size, you will have a hard time finding that in Korea. The American embassy publishes a nice information packet to read and explore. here is the link... http://seoul.usembassy.gov/t_overview.html
4 :
Be friendly and have a good attitude. They can be very pushy people. Go with it or you could offend them. I have taught some Korean children in the past and they are very eager to learn. They love seeing Americans and will stare a lot...get used to that. It will be easier on you to learn some of their language. Don't stick your nose up at their food and drinks without trying them. They tend to look and smell gross but they aren't that bad. Some delicious! Soju is huge here. The bigger cities like Seoul, Pusan or Daegu will be about the same as the big cities in the states; a bit on the pricey side. Almost every city has a market with cheaper things for your budget though. It is a great place to live. Very safe and friendly. Enjoy!

As I answered another question previously, you will never get a "really, totally correct" answer as to what's the best part of South Korea. Everybody who answers your question will be giving their own answer as to location, activities, weather, foods, etc . Some people go "ga-ga" over visiting or living in Seoul. Other people go "Ooohhhh" over Pusan. Some of the best advice you will ever receive about living, or visiting, in South Korea is - 1) Act natural and be friendly with everybody you meet. Just being friendly towards the people makes a lot of points for you. You can still have a wonderful time without knowing the language, but it’s a definite plus if you know the language, or have somebody translating for you. 2) Be open-minded that many things here in Korea are somewhat "different" than what you're used to or expecting. Different in no way means inferior. 3) When not working, don't hesitate to go around and visit the different locations, festivals, beaches, activities, etc., that Korea abounds with. It’s guaranteed you will find something to spark your interest. Remember, if you get bored living here in Korea, it's your own fault. 4) Don't act "more superior than thou" so many foreigners (especially Americans) behave like; blend-in and "go with the flow." 5) Don't have concerns that items, foods, clothing, etc., in Korea might be "inferior" to any standards you're used to. Is it different? Quite likely it is or will be for you, although Korea has a lot of good quality items and products. 6) Don't worry about Medical care. South Korea has gained a reputation as being top-notch concerning medical care, especially in the larger cities. 7) Like eating really good food? Korea is full of fantastic, tasty food (a lot of it is traditional). Don't hesitate about anything; at least try any item once before deciding whether or not you like it. And, learn to use Chopsticks. And a really big item to remember - "Seoul is not the center of the universe" as a lot of foreigners tend to believe. These people really believe either nothing exists outside Seoul city limits, or perhaps they believe outside Seoul there only exists farm villages and Rice Paddies, or??. (I feel sorry for them) Yes, Seoul is nice and has its attractions, but so do other locations around Korea.

have you taken a job with a hagwon? if so i would look into the public school right away there is a big difference in pay and a difference in months of vacation look up Canadian connections they are fantastic for finding great jobs i am Irish and came with them this year i have been in Korea 3 years trust me i much prefer working 4hrs a day then 9 with a hagwon (private school) after that i would thing about bringing clothes and spices and deodorant
8 :
These are all good responses. I would suggest reading the book Culture Shock! Korea. I read that before going, and it really helped a lot in the transition. I would reiterate that you need to be wary of hakwons. So many of them will work you to death. As well, many will work you illegally. I, personally, will never work for a hakwon again! Though, there are some reputable ones, like YBM (though, some people might disagree with me on that). If you go to daveseslcafe.com, you will find a lot of positions listed. Do try to get one in a highschool or other form of public school. You'll definitely be glad you did! As well, stay away from agents as they often are only out to make a quick buck by suggesting you to any hakwon that will pay them. If you need any other suggestions, feel free to email me at christensenjunk@yahoo.com.

Learn how to negotiate, and don't feel compelled to accept any first offers on anything. Shop around and do your homework regarding salary and conditions,etc.

Went to high school in Seoul @ an army base and was hesitant of going because it was a culture I did not know anything about. Was able to make friends with Koreans my age who were allowed to attended the school on base. They were welcome to the idea of taking me with them off base to experience their culture. Koreans from my experience were friendly.

What is the point of having troops and military bases in South Korea?
What is the point of having troops and military bases in South Korea?
The reason I ask is because North Korea is not a threat. North Korea’s million-man army may look impressive on paper, but remember that Iraq had a million-man army, which also had modern equipment, combat experience, and plenty of fuel. In contrast, North Korean soldiers suffer from malnutrition and rarely train due to a scarcity of fuel and ammo. Most North Korean soldiers could not attack because they are needed to defend the entire DMZ and coastal approaches (they remember the 1950 landing at Inchon) while entire divisions must remain throughout North Korea to fend off heliborne offensives, food riots, and probable coups On the other hand, the entire 700,000 man South Korean active duty army can be devoted to the defense of Seoul. The modern South Korean army is backed by over 5,000,000 well-trained reservists who can be called to duty in hours. South Korea has twice the population of the North, thirty times its economic power, and spends three times more on its military each year. South Korean military equipment is first class whereas most of the North Korean military equipment is over 30 years old and much is inoperable due to a lack of maintenance. If war broke out, South Korea has a massive industrial capacity and $94 billion in foreign currency reserves to sustain a war, while North Korea has no industry and no money. As a result, South Korea is roughly five times more powerful than North Korea. South Korea could crush North Korea in a war without our help. North Korea's military equipment that date back to the 1950,60,70s,80s which are Soviet obsolete weapons system that are not properly maintained. North Korea is unstable and could commit suicide by attacking South Korea. North Korea attacking south Korea would be like a bully punching a man in the face that has a loaded gun. So if all of this is true,why do we have military bases in South Korea then? South Korea has mined and built concrete fortifications along the mountainous DMZ to make a rapid breakthrough impossible. More importantly, China and Russia trade heavily with South Korea and provide no help to the fragile regime in the North. I mean come on there is a Burger King on the DMZ. So what is the point of having troops there? Many of you guys make very good points. But technology wise they lag behind. South Korea has military that is just as large as North Korea and better trained. Yes they would use a lot of arty on Seoul but in the end they would be smashed,crushed and defeated in a another war. Maybe I need to reserch more but South Korea is five times more powerful then NK.

First, I'd like to introduce you to your new best friend, the paragraph. Second, you have outlined an impressive set of facts and logic. If North Korea were to start a war, a LOT of people would die, and since Seoul is only 30 miles from the DMZ, it would still be hugely disruptive to the South Korean economy, which is now tightly linked with the world economy.

Because North Korea is a danger to one of our closest allies in the region, despite your failure to recognize it as such....and because that close ally has requested that we maintain a presence there. What you must understand is that the North Koreans are not aware of anything that you state is "on paper." From an early age they are told that they are superior and that they are surrounded by enemies who are jealous of them. They are conditioned to be ready to fight...and they ARE ready to fight. The main reason you cannot see the threat is that you are applying rationality to what has been proven to be one of the more irrational regimes in the world.

North Korea has special forces that dug caves under the DMZ and tried to kill the president, Park Chung Hee, at the Blue House. The American are there to patrol the DMZ. North Korea are testing nuclear missile and South Korea doesn't have an anti-missile defense so the Americans are there to provide them with one. Amercains have bases there just in case if North Korea violates the cease fire. Also North Korea are now making their own weapon and tanks and they are getting weapons from China and Russia secretly.

You have researched your numbers but have left off some very glaring facts. 1. You cannot compare apples to oranges..Numbers of Iraqi troops cannot be compared to numbers of NK troops for many reasons a. will to fight are different for each army...NK troops think of their leader almost as a god; not a tyrant b. topography and local advantage c. artillery and underground facilities (solid granite; not sand) NK has enough arty pointed at Seoul to level it in about 2 hours. Put another way, imagine 9-11 wiping out all of NY in 2 hours 2. How would 700,000 troops defend Seoul against artillery? have you ever been to Seoul? BTW, a large portion of that 700,000 are just guys doing their 2 years because they have to..many don't want to be there....again will to fight 3. NK SOF troops...largest SOF force on the planet....very well trained...will use all types of unconventional ways to cause trouble. 4. Sleeper agents in SK 5. DMZ is the most heavily mined border on the planet....not that many troops needed to defend it. Add to that the tunnels that have not been all discovered under the DMZ that NK could use 5. NK has huge chemical weapons stockpile and a handful of nukes (wind always blows north to south over there) As to your food riots and such. most in NK believe that the US and SK are the cause of those shortages...another reason for them to fight China has been and will continue to provide NK support to keep them stable regardless of their trade with SK I could go on, but as you can see, everything is not as you think. You should research more before making assumptions.....joining the military wouldn't help either

Who would be interested in teaching English in South Korea?
There is a high demand for the English language in South Korea. I am currently working here myself, and it is GREAT!!! Contact me if you have any questions. benefits: paid housing, plane tickets paid for, new experience, and making money. okay, #1 No im not Kim jeung-il #2 the tension is not between South Korea and the North. Its between UN, and America. They did everything they did, as an act for attention, and to squiggle their way into trading rights. #3 I've lived and worked in the US and bc of the economy now, anyone would be greatly benefitting themselves financially. (You pay for nothing to get here, or back home. The only bills you pay are electric and gas. monthly average=$45) #4 gets you out of your routine. Feel like you're doing the same thing over, and over...everyday? It mght take a lot, but once you're here, you're close to everything on this side of the world. (Austrailia, Japan, China, Malaysia,etc.) #5 Get off your ass! travel! experience new things! IF you want to see the world, you gotta start somewhere!!! I am only offering an option, there are many out there. #6 I have pictures of all the places I've visited while here. [I'll show you] (if you have facebook/myspace, let me know)

I think that it would be a very nice and rewarding experience. But there has also been a lot of tension near the Korean borders; so, there would be a lot to take into consideration. At my school, I am majoring in English Education, so I would be more than qualified for the position. There is still the issue, however, of the tension between the North and South Korean borders. Hope this helps, and good luck filling the position. So thanks, but for now, no thanks.

I got mugged today...how do I cope and make sure it doesn't happen again(I live in incheon south korea)?
Me and a couple of friends were walking down an alley after seeing a movie when about 5 or 6 high schoolers walked by us. One of them asked to use my phone so ,them being older then me in an secluded alley, I couldn't really refuse. Later I think he didn't even use the cell, cause there wasn't anything on the call history, he just used it to lead me away from my friends. Then another kid led me away to a secluded bench were he took out my wallet and started to go through it. I lost about 20 dollars but then again if I didn't have any money I'd be in big trouble. They also stole some cash from my friends too. No one was hurt and we only lost the money but I'm till really really pissed. What do you think I should have done and make sure it doesn't happen again?

Hey mate, I'm in Korea too, and its strange to hear of a mugging here, because its so safe usually I got this basic step strategy from the web and its how to deal with a person with a weapon, so I guess if it happens again just try to do the following: Stay calm. If you get the opportunity, quietly signal for help. Maintain eye contact with the assailant. Stall for time until help arrives or you can try to escape. Keep talking, but follow instructions from the person who has the weapon. Let them know that you are cooperating. Do not try to grab the weapon. Watch for a possible chance to escape to a safe area. Do not be a hero and risk harm to yourself or others. Do not verbally or physically challenge the person with the weapon. Make no sudden moves. If you need to move, tell the person with the weapon first. Do not resist. Tips: Be prepared to give the assailant your cash, wallet or jewelry. It is not worth the risk. Your life is more valuable than material possessions, which can be replaced. Try to remember the assailant's appearance and clothing, but do so carefully, without staring. After the confrontation call 9-1-1 as soon as possible. Notifying the police quickly will increase the chance of apprehending the suspect and preventing future victims. What You Need: A little courage and a lot of faith.

When is the cheapest time to fly to seoul, south korea?
i have been rasing money and a really convenient time for me to go would be mid june to early july. but i'm guessing a lot of koreans are flying back late june, so woulld that make it more expensive or cheaper? i need help! thanks!

The most expensive time is around Christmas, it is cheaper either in the fall or spring when school is going on, but not in the fall near their Thanksgiving, which is usually around the first of October.
2 :
I'd say the low-season (when plane tickets aren't so expensive) is during spring and fall when school kids over there are still in school. Plus, Korean Airlines (KAL) I think is cheaper than Asiana Airlines. (They're both Korean companies, btw.)
3 :
Spring Break
4 :
Summer, unfortunately for you, is the most expensive time. This is primarily due to the summer holidays for families in the Diaspora wanting to go back to see family. I'd also think that Asiana is cheaper than Korean airlines direct, but indirect, certainly from Europe is cheaper via French or KLM ect.

How do I make money with a blog that gets 20+ views a day?
My blog is starting to get 20+ views a day...Mostly from Japan and South Korea. It's an anime, video game, and computers/internet blog on Blogger and contains a little bit of adult content. I'm wondering what would be the best ways to make money off of it since I probably can't use AdSense due to the adult content...I already have an affiliate ad from a video game site that I made one sale with. The point is that my blog is growing in popularity and I want to start monetizing now...Even if I'll only be making pennies at first.
