I am trying to decide whether to teach English in S. Korea or Thailand.....

My problem is that my first choice is Thailand, but I am drawn to S. Korea because of the financial benefits (paid airfare, housing, higher salary, etc.) Maybe that makes me a sell-out.....but I do have to consider my student loan payments and financial obligations (blah).

In your opinion, what are the pros/cons of working in each country?

i.e. quality of the schools/jobs, safety, visa requirements, attitude towards women, food, cost of living, landscape/sightseeing, climate/weather, overall experience, etc.

I'd love your opinions. Thanks!!
