Has anyone taught or currently teaching at this school (YBM ECC in Yongin)?

What are your hours? Any job details? This is a major Hagwon chain. Not quite, but close to asking, have you ever eaten at that Dunkin Donuts/Paris Baguette in Yongin?

100 hrs a week, no time given. the contract is so vauge. When they do use numbers they say "3-4 days of orientation" or "about 100 hrs"

It is so vague, and my recruiter agrees. But if i find that other teachers there liked it i might consider it. Otherwise no-way....

My gut instinct says don't do it. If a contract is fuzzy, don't sign it. Most likely they mean 100 hours a month, but if they're sending this contract out like this as a finished product, I can only imagine the headaches and confusion you'd get from this school. Keep looking & don't let your recruiter convince you there is any urgency in accepting a job you're not happy with. There are jobs galore in Korea.
