There has been a lot of talk about the drug test for new E2 holders, but does anyone know of someone that has actually been booted out for failing the test?

I'm just curious since I just got my test done today. It was quite ridiculous having to pay 104,000 won to have a doc talk to me about my medical past for 5 mins, have a nurse take a few mLs of my blood, and pee into a paper cup that I placed in a wall in the bathroom afterwards.

that makes a whole lot more sense, but asking for sense in Korea is a long shot.

I passed! Best news ever!

At least as far as i know since i have been given the go ahead to register for my alien card. I have heard that they don't mess around even if there are small traces but i am not so sure if that is the case. i know teachers who didn't know about the drug test and were very very very worried that they would be deported.

From what admin has told me...that is normally the case.
