I have been offered a position for a school in Bukgu which is a commuter suburb of Daegu so I believe.

There are two teachers there already. Can anyone furnish me with what Bugku is like?

If you live close to the river, or near Kyungbook U., it's pleasant and quite scenic.

There is a lot of heavy industrial space in Buk Gu, so, pray you're not living next to a metal recycling plant.


Bukgu has Costco, and it's about a 5$ cab ride to downtown.

Yeah, Korean cities are microplanned. All basic amenities are in each neighborhood.

Do you know the address of your school? If so, I can tell you more.

Funny you should contribute with your non-contribution because the conversation went like this:

Recruiter: "is there anywhere you would like to work"

Me: "Anywhere where blynch and his excrutiating dress sense
will not be seen, checkered shirt and serial killer bermuda shorts
with socks and shoes! He must have got dressed with a blindfold on"

Recruiter: "Ah yes, he is our man in Pyongyang - we had to send him there because thats the only place on the planet where he would look stylish - would you like to live in Daegu?"

Me: "yes please"

Recruiter: "No problem!"

Yes I have... it's all about "personal relationship". A personal relationship with Christ is far apart from religion. A personal relationship is believing Jesus was who he said, following his teachings, and believing in the bible and its principles. A personal relationship is a love for Christ.

You will find God and his love if you do have a vision.

Really, keep em coming. We need clowns like you around here to entertain us more.

Why does Daegu suck? It can't be worse than the place you are pictured in, those two criminally suspicious blokes behind you look like they are going to mug you in a pincer move or sexually assault you (in a pincer move no doubt!) your fault for wearing shorts! Razz

Blynchie, I'm sorry you don't have friends and feel desperate enough to stalk me around daves, but i don't like you.
I like laughing at you, and you make it really easy and all, but get some pride, will ya?

You provide me with some great comic relief while i slave away at my dissertation. I wish i could use you as subject matter, but you're rather one dimensional, and I'm not studying Down's Syndrome.

What kind of moron who has nothing to do with korea or ESL, hangs around a Korean ESL website, anyway?

You need help . Go to church. Maybe they can do something for you.
Go stalk your church buddies, you freak.
