It's a scheme for employing native speakers in Gyeonggi-Do public schools.

Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing After several years of reading 'GPIK posts' I've come to several conclusions:
1. Dain Bae doesn't really exist. Wink
2. GEPIK GETs (or whatever they're called in Gyeonggi-do) are abnormally freaky. This is saying a lot (considering the average English teacher in K-land). Wink
3. GEPIK's mission statement must contain a sentence re: 'desk warming'. Wink

GEPIK exists, but not for foreign teachers. Money changes hands, but not for OUR benefit. Rolling Eyes
