Hey guys,

I was wondering if anyone here could give some feedback regarding the two? I have job offers for public school teaching in both..

Both are small towns -- one is 30 min from Mokyo (Hampyeong) while the other is 30 min from Suncheon (Boseong) -- and that's pretty much all I know about the two.

Which town is better in your opinion? Do you think any of them has a gym?

thanks!

They are probably equally small and lacking services, but hampyeong is closer to mokpo and closer to gwangju - which have everything you need to stay sane. its also closer to the major highways so getting to places like the airport and seoul are much easier/faster. boseong is really isolated in comparison.

Hey thanks!

Yea I figured as much.

Is it worth being closer to Mokpo rather than to Suncheon though?

Yes, but gwangju is the key. There is really little difference between mokpo and suncheon.
