I'm planning on teaching English abroad through the EPIK program in Korea and am wondering what are the best cities to work and live in? I would choose Seoul, but that is not an option. Out of Busan, Incheon, Daegu, Daejeon, Gwangju, and Ulsan, which one would be the best and why? I would prefer a city with nightlife, touristy things to do and be more westernized.

Either Busan or Incheon would be your best bet. Busan is the second largest city in South Korea but it is kind of far from Seoul. It takes 3 hours to get to Seoul from Busan by express train. The city has a nightlife, touristy things and moderately westernized. Plus, it is right by the beach! Incheon is probably the 3rd or 4th largest city in S.Korea and is not too far from Seoul. It takes about 60 to 90 minutes to get to Seoul by "public transit." (Say, If Seoul were NYC, Incheon would be like Newark, NJ!)
