Tips for Living in Korea!!!
Don't go. I was abused by employer at Talking Club in Hong Seong. Koreans are really neurotic and blame all social problems and crime on the stress of living under the threat of a nuclear war. Actually without the threat of that war Koreans would probably kill each other at random. The people do not pay on time, maintain contracts, and I was physically abused by a maniac woman at EE Boo Young Talking Club. i Hong Seong. I am angry she had so many visibile problems while I had to have my entire life scrutinized by the South Korean Embassy in DC before I left. I was striuck by Cho when she followed me to police department where I went for help. South Koreans are human calculators but are less than animals in my opinion and they are really anti American. They are very petty people. I was tired of people putting down the USA, these people might have degrees or know engineering but as far as conforming to contracts and exhibiting civilized behavior they are in the stone age. RUN DON"T GO TO KOREA you will not be able to count on expat community for help because they are in competition for the same limited number of jobs. I was really really sick and had no alien registration, orientation, paycheck or medical insurance. When I left I was sick for 3 months. The woman I worked for was filthy in more ways than one.
