hmmmm.......Idon't say this is the first time I had seen an article like this one, but it seems they are trying to crackdown on locals as well as foreigners...
4 million won a month? Thats mere peanuts compared to some of the people I've worked with in the past....
The director of the English Tourism Department at one hogwon I worked at was making between 5 to 8 million won a month, depending on the season of the year (in the fall/spring- not that much, but in the winter/summer- BOOM! balla'!)
As for me............no comment  |

| Korea has the same problem as The USA and many other countries. That problem is that the vast majority of people who receive a PhD because they want to become a college professor will never receive such a position. So, in that case, why not hire for such positions Koreans who have a real PhD?. |

THEY ARE CANADIANS.
(oh canada... what a backward country... ) |
Where did it say Canadians you fuktard? The only guy mentioned was a dude who supposedly graduated from SNU. If he was a Canadian that's an amazing trick.

Hmmm...
Any legal eagles out there? I can see how forging a diploma to get a job would be grounds for dismissal, or grounds for a civil suit...but how exactly is it a criminal offense? Why is it a police matter? |

Koreans are probably busted for this crap MORE than foreigners, but betcha it doesn't get the same publicity.  |

In the English newspapers. Koreans murder each other every day, I'm sure. But if you only read the KT/KH, only about 3 people get murdered a year in Korea and 2/3 of the time it's a foreigner. Indeed, banks are never robbed in Korea. There's zero petty crime in Korea. According to what's absent from the KT/KH.
I trust you can read Korean and you're speaking from experience? You rarely encounter there stories in the Korean media? Yes? |
