Korean Job Discussion Forums

I'm having a great time in Korea working at a university. My students are incredibly good-natured and easy to work with. The other native-speakers here enjoy their jobs, also, and many have been here for many years.

As I've said before...Korea is a good place, and I certainly enjoy living here much more than I enjoyed living in my home country, the UK.

...how did you secure your job? through a recruiter or contact?

how long have you been there?

Korea is practically bursting with money, if you can get your share, then yeh, its a bloody great place!

Butlerian, I am glad that you like Korea, and I am sorry that people who want to lambast you for liking Korea have to invade your post.

I think Korea rocks. Every country has its faults. I love it here and am always amused by reading posts by people who haven't learnt to adapt to a new environment and new surroundings. The rules are different here. Wake up.

Also amused by the ongoing quarrel within this thread. LOL

Why don't you boys play nice?

Butlerian is offering an opinion and no doubt a genuine one.

I'm sure lots of people like Korea. My dad loved Busan (or Pusan as he
calls it) during his time here in 1952. (and he was in a war)

I will also say the chav toilet we are from is going down the pan at a
fast rate of knots.

Aren't you from Liverpool Butlerian?

Well, from what I've seen, Butlerian is a new guy who gets his hackles up quickly when anyone says a bad word about Korea.

He's having a good time. If you aren't, you aren't seeing things right. This sort of nonsense is peddled by quite a few. I believe Homer started this.

I've enjoyed my time in Korea, and intend to stay for a while. Most of what you read here is negative, I suspect, because there are many people who simply like the opportunity to be negative.

It's the Koreans who are nice, for the most part, not the posters here! There are, of course, exceptions on both sides.

I came in here to see how long it took for the thread to descend into childish ranting.

Four posts. Could do better.

Back home, my line of vision was constantly being offended by the sight of huge fat wobbly people wearing sports clothing, with huge asses. It hurt my eyes.
My eyes very rarely have that problem here.
Must say on the whole Koreans are an attractive people.
Actual country is butt ugly though, (the cities), country side or where no butt ugly buildings have gone up, is pretty. Not much of it though.

If you have a cush job at a uni with pleasant coworkers and good students, of course you are going to think Korea is ok.

That experience is far from normal though. Put some time in at a shithole hogwon and see if everything is roses here.

i gotta support the cause of this thread.

yes, korea is a great place to live

well...at least Seoul is (for me)
