I haven't dealt with them personally, but on the pretty laminated promotion cards they pass out with the Seoul Subway map on the back, it says that they are a "U.S. Registered Corporation." I don't know what that means, or if that gives them a bit of an edge over other recruiters as far as reputation or reliability goes. Their website is www.parkenglish.com

They make more posts regarding immigration than any other user in this forum.

I went through them, and Cecelia, especially Niki, hooked me and my boyfriend up with awesome jobs. However, we got connected with them through a person that knew them well, so maybe that kind of played into our luck.

I have heard negative and positive things about them. I would go through them again if I ever needed to, and I always recommend them to anyone that asks. I am sure you will get other opinions.

I got to the beginning stages with them. They offered me a job interview with a company I had already interviewed with. I figured that was a good sign so I signed up. They didn't get my business, but were very professional on the phone. Very polite.

Specifically I spoke with a guy named Chris from Oregon. He seemed decent. Followed through. Contacted me quickly enough (within 24 hours). Wished me well. Didn't try to steal another recruiter's commission. He even did a follow up email wishing me well with my choice and thanking me for letting him know that I would no longer be needing his service. I thought that was decent.
