If you have a beard, do you think you should shave it for the head shot to send to Korea?

ughh, do you have dirty beard or a nicely trimmed beard? Answer seems obvious enough.

Look at it this way. Are there Koreans who might decide not to hire you because of the beard? Probably so.

Are there Koreans who might be more be more likely to hire you because they really like beards? Probably not.

You can always grow it back later.

Thats awfully submissive. Assuming your beard is under control and presentable in Western society, I'd keep it. Those who reject you because of it are probably not the people you will want to work for anyhow.

You want your best shot at a rare good job, shave it. I think you are increasing your chances of getting a shitty job with a desperate school if you don't. Why (potentially) limit your choices?
