So I got offered public school job there 2.1won (22teaching hours) nice apartment with 2 rooms (to myself) with a computer and everything else. Not sure about air conditioning or heating yet (have to ask). They said it is 10min walking from the school and 15min walking from Sanbon.
Will I be happy there? I like to go out on weekends to bars clubs...sometimes tursdays as well...or will i be bored out of my mind?

What exactly is GEPIK? It says something about that in my contract and i've been seeing pretty bad things about it on the boards.

Gungnae Elementary School, right?

I'm the teacher at Gungnae Middle School next door, however, I'm not in GEPIK. I do know one of the Korean English teachers at the school and he's a really nice guy. I do also know that the current teacher lives with her husband (hence the reason there is a 2 bedroom apt.) What else?

The school is in a well-off area and students will be considered to be medium to high level for Korea.

As for drinking....well it's located in a strict non-drinking area. Alcohol is prohibited and is only available if you go to the nearest city (about 1 hour and 45 minutes away).



Seriously, just do a quick search about Sanbon and you'll find that it's a very popular place to live, very close to Anyang, and a simple commute into Seoul.
