I am arriving in Seoul Monday night, and even after repeated asking, no one at the hogwan or the recruiting office has offered to meet me at the airport.
Anyone... please help.


Ring the recruitment office, tell them you aren't coming to Korea if no one will have the basic courtesy to meet you at the airport after you have travelled from the other side of the globe for the job they have offered you as this gives you a very bad impression.

Otherwise, go to the oceanside hotel in incheon (free pick up from and too the airport) rest for a night, then go back to the airport via the oceansides free transport (they speak english) and get the bus to Daegu (it's easy to do this, just ask the information desk lady right by the exit of arrivals.)

hugekebab, it might be a good idea for you to check when the OP posted his message. Your pieces of advice make sense... but they are too late! Wink
