anyone hear about a potential strike this Thursday on lines 1,2,3,4 in seoul? I read it a couple days ago somewhere but can't find info on it now.

I teach a T/W/TH lunch class at Seoul Metro HQ (free lunch in the cafeteria afterwards. The lunch lady has the hots for me, so I get extra vittles in my soup of the day!!). I haven't heard anything about a strike as of now, but I'll ask when I go tomorrow.

They only operate half of the lines, but off-hand I can't remember which ones. I think its the ones you mentioned (some other quasi-government company operates the other lines).

Since I don't drive to that class, but generally take the subway, I will tell them they still have to pay me if I don't show up due to a strike.

Sorry, but my paychecks cannot be dependent on an annual Korean strike season.
