Japan definately
2 :
Historically Japan and its people do not welcome foreigners to live in their land, that's why they make it so difficult for foreigners to survive there without learning Japanese and behaving like them. On the surface they try to appear polite but they never bother to even guess what a foreigner is trying to say. Hong Kong and Singapore are just the opposite since they're more used to be visited by foreigners. These 2 places are quite similar, English is widely used, people are extremely helpful towards foreingers. Many say Singapore is less fun/vibrant and freedom of expressions are restricted by its govt.

Before I teach there I will ave to learn about their language and study it real hard. I don't want them to ask me a queston and I don't know what it means. I do look forward to becoming a teacher one day though.

I actually plan on doing this at some point. I think it would be a great experience both in teaching and just regarding life in general.

I have been here for 3 years. The language is difficult but I have picked up enough to get by. Get a reference of the employer that you intend to work for. You can expect to get modest housing and income of 2.2-2.7 million won. The exchange rate is down, but is still a pretty good deal. I work in public school. I like that more than an academy. But it is a huge industry and there are many good companies with a solid reputation. I have met more people with good experiences than bad and I have met many teachers here. There are always little hassles but for the most part it is a really nice lifestyle.
2 :
The shopping is good and the food is great. Don't expect to much hospitality. You might get shoved around a lot and smoke blown in your face. Don't expect someone to say excuse me or I am sorry. Don't see to many people smiling. It looks like everyone there has had a rough life and are unhappy. Maybe you should visit first before you take the job. I think it might be cleaner than China according to my wife who has been to China. We have both been to Korea and still go there ever so often since it is right across the ocean from Japan where we live.
3 :
As a stranger to the culture, of course you're going to run in to some hassles. But like the first poster, I'm going on my third year here and have had primarily good experiences. Any bad things have been minor nnoyances at best. As far as looking for a new job, just follow a couple basic rules before accepting and you should be fine. 1) Be upfront about what you're looking for when it comes to hours and age levels, vacation time, etc. Don't take anything for granted. And if they look as if they don't want to honor the agreement, hold your ground. You have all the power in the relationship, not them. 2) Make sure you talk to a previous teacher who is no longer employed by them. IF you can't get a phone call lined up or an email address,for the former teacher, don't bother taking the job. This way you can interview them about the school, working conditions, apartment, etc. and they have no reason to lie because they're already free and clear. If they are still working there and don't like the job, were stiffed on pay or something, they may lie to you just to get you to sign on just so they can get the hell out. Other than that, Korea is just like China in that you'll get out of it what you put in to it. If you take some time to learn a bit about their culture, pick up some language and go out and mingle with the natives, you'll probably have a great time. If you become a hermit and only leave your apartment to teach, you'll most likely be miserable and tell everyone it sucked. It's all in how you play the game. -S-

Epik is public school so you'll most likely get your money. Don't accept any assignments in the hinterland they suck.
5 :
2.3 mil is about standard and is a pretty good living, as long as you get a free apartment thrown in on top. Will you be in Seoul? There's a LOT of fun things to do in Seoul. Some people take jobs in more rural areas and love it, but I've heard of many people who get stuck in some village and end up hating it. Of course, South Korea's not a huge country and it has a highly efficient transportation network, so few corners of the country are more than a few hours train or bus ride from the capital. With only a little discipline, you can save a pretty reasonable amount of money working in Korea. In China it's much harder since the actual pay is far lower (as you know, it's balanced out by the very low cost of living which makes China a great place to live but not nearly as good as Korea for saving money). Korea is far cleaner than the big cities in China. Even Seoul, while polluted by American standards, almost always has blue skies. The exceptions are during the yellow dust season (which extends for a week to a couple of months and is in fact dust from China's Gobi Desert blowing across the peninsula in late winter and into spring) and a few weeks in summer when there's a bit of a smog problem. Anyway, yes, come to Korea. You'll love it. The streets are safe, the people are very kind, the pay is good, the lifestyle is wonderful and there's so much to do and see.

i havent worked in public schools, just hagwons. i think the biggest complaints from the friends that i had that worked at public schools were overbearing, control freak co-teachers. or the other extreme...the co-teacher who is never there in ur class doing their job. 'desk-warming' is also an annoyance for my friends. if u dont have a class for the rest of the day and are caught up w/ lesson plans and ur school work, why stay there and not just go home? i dont know the number of students u teach per class in china but in public schools its usually about 30-35+. on the plus side, vacation (from what my friends tell me) are much better than hagwons. 4+ weeks for ps as opposed to usually 10-14 days for a haggie. the most difficult part work-wise can be the communication (or lack there of) from ur korean co-workers and upper management. from my experience, the foreigner is usually the last one to know. or at times, they hold a meeting completely in korean and dont tell u whats going on. or they dont tell u plans have changed until the last minute (sometimes done to keep 'harmony' throughout instead of telling u this upfront). while i totally agree w/ the previous poster that said u get what u put in. there also can be some truth in what my friend told me as well...sometimes u can only be as good as ur school allows u to be.

EPIK is probably one of the best ways to get started in Korea and 2.3 million won is pretty good. Hagwons are run by robber barons just out to make a quick buck, and public schools are far less corrupt. I worked at a Korean elementary school as well as hagwons. The former was the best young learners teaching experience I've ever had, and the latter, well, was barely bearable. Honestly I'd recommend you stay in China simply because you're already set up and adjusted there, and Chinese is a more useful language. Your standard of living in China will be much higher than the standard of living for EFL teachers in Korea -- they are strictly "middle class" in Korea, whereas in China you're probably upper-middle class. Korea is probably a little bit more racist than China, and the visa system is stricter than China. Are you working at a public school in China? If so, I'd recommend you stay in China. The short-term money isn't worth it, and honestly, these days, the savings gap is narrowing between China and Korea. Food, beverages, and basic things in Korea are much more expensive than they are in China, and this will eat into your savings. A teacher making 8,000 RMB in China would probably save the same amount as a lowest-rung EPIK or SMOE teacher making 1.8 million a month in Korea due to the difference in the cost of living. In China, you can get a meal for $1, but you'd be hard pressed to find one in Korea for less than $3, and even those are getting rarer with inflation over the past year or two.

I've heard poor reports on EPIK. I was in Korea and worked in a university which was good as far as the teaching went i.e. good students. I was at a top rated school though. The administration was erratic and didn't respect English education. I am now in China. I like it more than Korea as there are better travel and weekend opportunities here. I love Chinese food, whereas in Korea I liked a few of the dishes, but not that many. Wages are stagnant in Korea. 2.3 mill is typical and you should be able to save, but not much. A far better deal is the JET Programme. You might have missed their deadline. They offer the best pay and decent work conditions. I liked living in Japan better than Korea.

Will wifi on my iphone work in South Korea without any cell service?
Here's the deal. I have an iphone through AT&T right now, and I plan on terminating my contract soon. I will be moving to South Korea for a year, and will not need the cell service. What I am wondering is will my wifi services still be available? Will I still be able to use my purchased apps when I am in wifi (not AT&T wifi, but my own personal wifi)? I want to be able to use skype and other apps, and just be able to browse the internet.

Can This Power Supply Work In South Korea
Can This Power Supply Work In South Korea?
I'm in South Korea now and I'm worried about plugging in my (US made) desktop that runs on 120V. In Korea they use 240V in all power outlets, so I was wondering if it would be sufficient to get a power cord that can handle that, or if the hardware itself couldn't handle that power. My computer uses this as it's power supply: HP 460W POWER SUPPLY 5188-2862 24-pin If you can tell me what I can do to make sure it doesn't blow out when I plug it in, I would appreciate it.

this psu has an input voltage switch just under the power plug (this little red switch). this switch has 2 positions: 1. 100 - 127V input 2. 200 - 240V input if you are in Korea you have to set the switch on 200 - 240V and you can use a cord for korean outlets. don't forget to switch it back to 100 - 127V if you're back at home.
I'm in South Korea now and I'm worried about plugging in my (US made) desktop that runs on 120V. In Korea they use 240V in all power outlets, so I was wondering if it would be sufficient to get a power cord that can handle that, or if the hardware itself couldn't handle that power. My computer uses this as it's power supply: HP 460W POWER SUPPLY 5188-2862 24-pin If you can tell me what I can do to make sure it doesn't blow out when I plug it in, I would appreciate it.

Does iPhone work in South Korea
Does iPhone work in South Korea?
I have a 16GB iPhone 3G-S on 3.1.3 jailbroken but not unlocked. With that said I am going to Korea to visit my dad for a month. Of course my phone is very important at the airport or if I happen to get lost. I want to know if my phone will work over there. People tell me, and I've read, that it will, I just get roaming charges of $3/min (complete bullshit AT&T). I want to know if there's a way I can make a call like normal if needed. Also, does anyone know the data charges?

What should I do for health insurance when studying or working in South Korea
What should I do for health insurance when studying or working in South Korea?
I plan to travel to South Korea, either to teach English or study at a university. What sort of health insurance options do I have for studying or working abroad? By the way, I live in the U.S. When I spoke with Blue Cross in my state, they told me that I have to be a resident of my state to maintain coverage, and that it's "iffy" whether I could maintain coverage while abroad. So, I'm wondering what other options there are.

Korea has government subsidized health insurance, so even if you are uninsured, health care is comparatively inexpensive. Most places of employment will pay the part of your health insurance that is not covered by the govt. As a student, you have to provide your own form of insurance from your home country. With insurance, a checkup at the doctor costs about 3 dollars. You can get your wisdom teeth out for less than 100 bucks (I paid over a 1000). And a regular prescription of antibiotics will cost you less than 5 dollars.
3 :
The Korean government's health insurance is required if you're working in Korea and in most cases your company will pay 50%. If you come over as a student, you will need to provide your own health insurance or just go without.

What can I expect as an American living and working in South Korea
What can I expect as an American living and working in South Korea?
I have a chance at getting a job teaching English in South Korea. I know that there is fighting going on right now, but I'm uncertain as to how Americans are viewed over there. I've heard everything from "Koreans hate Americans" to "Koreans love Americans".. I was hoping someone who has experienced South Korean culture recently could shed some light on what it's like over there. I love all Asian cultures and I'm learning Korean. Any advice or pointers?

I don't think it matters much. I've seen many teachers from America in Korea, and they love it there. But you would have to expect some racism because you get that anywhere you go. It's true that some Koreans might not like Americans so much because of its history and all, but I don't think they will be mean to you just because of that. After all, you have nothing to do with the USA government. Most of the people are very kind and generous, but some can be short-tempered and impatient. I recommend avoiding arguements and don't wander around alone at night. Because Korea is a busy country, people might not like it when you take time when crossing the street or ordering food or drinks. (try not to keep them waiting) But they are usually very kind to foreigners. If you are interested in Korean culture, speak to them about their food, music, dramas, or sports. These are all I can say. Good Luck!

Is it possible for foreigners to find work in south korea and across asia
Is it possible for foreigners to find work in south korea and across asia.?
Do you think that there are companies and organizations in South Korea that hire foreigners. For example, a foreigner (of Asian origins) who double-majored in Linguistics and East Asian Studies and who can speak up to 5 languages - English, French, Japanese, Mandarin, and Korean. To start, I know that I must set foot there - so I am specifically aiming to become an English teacher as a starting point. Then perhaps, I should shop around for jobs. I want to work across Asia, especially in the Entertainment industry.

Yes there are organizations that will hire foreigners. They aren't all closed off the foreigners working there you know. I would suggest finding an organization in America that can help get you started in Asia. They can contact over there & help find you a job. Or go to some of the schools around in Asia & talk to the people there & ask what they are looking for. There is competition because many people are wanting to teach English there nowadays. So it may be a bit tough to find a job there. But don't give up. You will get a job.

You, being a Canadian, would be unable to find a job working as a house framer. The reasons are various - The construction companies could not afford to pay you the salary that you would expect to make. They definitely won't offer you any housing allowance to pay your monthly rent or utilities. Not being able to speak the language would also be a big minus for you. Almost all of the Korean housing is made with reinforced concrete, not wood as you are probably used to working with. Not being a citizen would also not benefit you. You would need to get the appropriate Visa for working in Korea, but the Korean Government doesn't offer Visas for single people looking for work other than subjects such as teaching English, or other scholar-related subjects. The only other "right person" who may offer you assistance would be a South Korean Embassy or Counsulate where you live currently. They will provide you with the latest information.

There's Filipinos working in every country in the world, almost...And it depends on what kind of job they're looking for. Most are low paying though. Maids, nanny, ect...They mainly do the jobs other people don't want.
2 :
Work in big MNCs or banks in a very high position. They can post you there as an expat.
3 :
What kind of question is that??? That's too racy. Filipino jobs abroad are usually in high postions in different categories such as business, science, technology, medicine etc etc thou some tends to be maids but not at all. It's because filipinos are into outsourcing so expect all kinds of job. But the most in-demand is a filipino nurse because most europeans, us and canada as well as australia prefer them due to its quality service a filipino nurse can offer. Maybe not in Korea, cause they can't speak ENGLISH or SPANISH. And the economy, not that good.
4 :
Yes you can. I worked with a receptionist and part time English teacher from there. Best thing to do is to contact the Korean Embassy in your country to find out full details of what you need. http://www.helplinedatabase.com/embassy-database/other-countries-in-country/philippines.html http://countrystudies.us/south-korea/33.htm

Not a chance. You've got to be a Korean citizen, and even for foreigners who eat, speak, and breathe Korea, there's a .0000001% chance of ever becoming a law enforcer in SKorea. Why hire outside when they have MILLIONS from which to choose? Unlike the West, where differences are somewhat praised, you don't really want to stand out over here in the East. Furthermore, I respectfully disagree with Dudnaito because, in the US, you DO need great grades, physical strength and stamina, determination in the competitive market, etc. However in the States, ANY US citizen can become a police officer, regardless of race or ethnicity.

I would double check this information because I'm not 100% sure. I'm going to Korea in November to teach (although I do have a degree from the UK) and I thought that as long as you were a citizen from an English speaking country and you held a degree then it's fine. If your an American citizen and especially if your majoring in English I wouldn't have thought you would have a problem once you complete your degree. Like I said though I'm not 100% sure. Good luck.
2 :
To teach there you need to be a native English speaker but your degree can be anything as long as it's from an accredited English speaking university. Check with the Korean embassy though to be on the safe side and if there's a problem, there are plenty of other countries where you can work with a degree and TEFL certificate!

What sort of electronics travel adaptor do I need to travel from Australia to South Korea
What sort of electronics travel adaptor do I need to travel from Australia to South Korea?
Also, even with an adaptor will my electronics work when plugged into a Korean socket or are they on a different voltage? Basically; how can I get my Australian electronics to work in South Korea?

1 :
Korea is 220v and Australia is 240v...your electronics should be fine with just a simple plug converter... The best time to buy one is at the airport in Australia as you are leaving...or an electronics store before you leave...don't wait until you get here to Korea because it will be difficult to find... I bought a multi-converter that works for many different countries in the airport store the last time I traveled...
2 :
Korea runs on 220v while the Australia. runs on 240v cycles. So you need Down Voltage Regulator Converter to use ur electronics in korea. and other difference is that Australia has 3-pin plugs but Korea socket has 2-pin plugs! so if you want to use electronics which you buy in korea you need plug changer !! Good luck and have a great time in Korea!

Will my GHDs, about 2 years old now, work in South Korea with a universal adapter? Don't want them to explode
Will my GHDs, about 2 years old now, work in South Korea with a universal adapter? Don't want them to explode!
Going to work in South Korea for a year - been told that my GHDs will not work there due to the difference in voltage conversion. Should I take them and my adapter anyways and hope for the best? Or just buy an expensive new pair with in-built voltage converter...?

Any electrical device work with an apropriate adaptor. There are adaptors from 110V/ 60HZ to 220V/ 50Hz or vice versa. You will not have any problems. Have a nice day
2 :
The voltage will def be different. Your GHDs will not explode (dont quote me on that) but they will not work properly e.g. not heat up properly. Almost not worth bringing them. Not sure about a voltage converstion. I know many travel hairdryers have built in voltage converstions but unfortunatly GHD's dont!! Have a great holiday
3 :
If it is an MK4, then you will simply need a universal adapter. MK4's have universal voltage which automatically adjusts to the local voltage for optimum performance.

Why would anyone want to work in South Korea?
Everyone tries to get away from that country. Why would any talented, skilled person want to work in that country of all countries? They spend their time protesting everything American even though we built up that country and made it what it is today.

South Korea may have its drawbacks as well, but it gives me a chance to see some of the rest of the world, and it is just a few hours away from Japan, so I can play tourist. I can guess that more people want the United States to be an ally than those who protest as the North would overrun the South without US aid.
