Not to knock the show, but just so you know:

2 months, even with a break, for 1.5 million won is not anything a valid teacher would take. You are going to get people not able to teach legally, and even those are probably going to teach privates for more money.

Koreans brush their teeth like there's gold under the enamel. They don't need any more education about it.

It's "Hyehwa," not "Hyewha," but I do the same thing sometimes.


You should focus on getting volunteers that already live here on an E-2 or F series visa, but don't require them to do all the dates and shows. You can pay the F's and you can help the E-2's get volunteer clearance thru immigration and something to put on their resume. There may be some market for people who want to visit Seoul while doing other things, but a lot of those people aren't gong to be in country.

I'm not an expert on these matters, so anyone: Feel free to chime in and tell me I'm wrong.
