Is it an immersion village?
As in, there is nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, and nothing to drink?

I've heard dark rumors and whispers of whispers about such places, but it seems everybody that knows first hand never really comes back...

English village experiences seem mixed....some find the job gets tiring and boring...and hate the experience.....others seem to love it.

I worked at the "EV" across the main road within view of the place you speak of.

That place is a fortress. Far from all towns (at least 20 minutes to walk to Dunkin, 15 to a bus stop) and you are surrounded by farms which means in the summer you will be surrounded by the scent of manure. I believe they give you housing in/ near Gyesan (I THINK, NOT SURE) and they drive you to work each morning. There is a town called Wondang close by, and in the other direction you will find Gimpo.
