Ok so here goes. I taught in Gwangju 2008-2009. I came home and LOOK, the American economy has been ModEdit ever since. I've been thinking of heading back to teach, only Busan this time...

Korea has been on my mind ever since I came back to the States, and I'm not quite sure why...

Busan and good these days for a single gal?

Yes, Busan is an awesome town. you will have a blast.
try and teach around PNU, Gwangari beach or for real downtown life try Somyeon.

doesn't really matter where in Korea you go as long as its a fairly big city you will have a much better time than in the States in this economy.
PLUS, It's Asia. the Orient. so much diversity here.well so does NYC, but...
you get the idea.

It will take you a little more work to find a job this time around, but if you finished your contract the first time, you know that you can do it again. E-mail lots of recruiters, do your research, and be a little flexible. Chances are good that you will find something.
