Sungkyunkwan University seems to provide a high starting salary.

The annual salary of first-year professors is 43 million won at Sungkyunkwan University. (That was in 2001.)

The annual salary of first-year foreign professors (lecturers?) is 30 million won at Sungkyunkwan University. (That was in November 2003.)

Do foreigners earn the same as Koreans?

The source of the salary for foreigners was a posting on

It is the style, right?

Nearly 900,000 people earn more than 36 million won ($30,000) in yearly wages, despite an economic slowdown. The number of workers making more than 36 million won in annual salaries will surpass the 1-million mark next year.

The number of workers making between 31.2 million won and 35.99 million won in annual wages also rose by 17 percent from 345,426 to 404,020. The number of workers earning between 19.2 million won and 31.99 million won edged up by 8.23 percent from 1.78 million to 1.93 million, according to the report.

However, the number of median-income earners with salaries ranging from 19.19 million won and 11.52 million won was estimated at 2.55 million, down from 2.57 million.

30 hours a week isn't a "hell of a lot". However if you were/are used to that it may seem like that. Try teaching back home though. With all the prep, marking, and extra-curricular activities, it's more than 30 hours a week.


Similarly, 30 hours a week of classroom hours also require more than 30 hours a week of work, with prep, marking, monthly report cards, student interviews, staff meetings, etc. .



Depends on the hakwon though. Prep yes I do that. Marking no, monthly report cards no, student interviews no, staff meetings no. Even when adding the prep time it doesn't come to thirty hours a week for me. Then again one has to be able and willing to haggle with the hakwon and not just sign the contract that's shoved in front of you. It helps to have a letter of recomendation from your last hakwon and other reference letters when you do this.
