I have to make a decision very quickly between the two--any advice at all?!?

Simple: Neither!!!! Christian school in Korea for me would be a big no no!! SLP stands for Slave Language Programme. My mate works at one they're furking lousy to work for. Run for the hills, I've just caved you from a year of pain, you can buy me a drink sometime!!! Laughing Laughing Laughing

You never have to make a decision that quickly and NEVER let anyone pressure you into making a fast decision (it will ALWAYS be to your disadvantage).

I would advise saying no to both but I am not a 20-something new graduate who is as eager as a new puppy to get on a plane and begin a new adventure (even if it will go south soon after your arrival).

I lived in the Sungbuk area (not Sungbok) and it's a decent area to live in. Women's uni right there, tons of girls, more than enough to do, and close to Itaewon.

Ilsan is far away from the places you'll want to visit and hang out in.

Cheers!

I wouldn't work at either but if I had a gun to my head, I'd choose Seongbuk.
