I worked at one job where I wasn't paid until almost half way through into the next month.
Any reason for such delays (10 days, 2 weeks, etc) in the pay in Korea? |

Helps a crappy hagwan cover their losses when you pull a runner on payday (they still have 10-14 days salary to cover their cost of replacing you).

Good point! I was speaking hypothetically. Though I have heard rumors of good ones. |

Ah yes. The illusive "good hagwon". It's location is a well kept secret. I have it on good word that Elvis works. |

I must be the king himself then. I work at an awesome hagwon, though I can't say anything positive for any other hagwon I know |
