I'm a Assistant Professor (tenure track) at a university in Seoul. PM me if you have any serious/specific questions.
I will say that I am very lucky that my school took me on as such, but the requirements that are needed to get accepted, and the constant pressure for publications and other things, to keep going (ie- tenure TRACK), make it a career (and on-going headache haha).

To answer the OP's question, I would say it depends on a lot of things-
what is your teaching specialty?
what are your degree's in?
are you in or will you be in Korea soon?
the titles of teacherhood in Korea are very varied...do you know exactly what title you want?
if it is an area other than TESL/TEFL, you might do better searching out people/contacts in THAT area you want to teach in
"non-tenure track assistant professor", as you said, means you are looking at 2,500,000w or so a month, but there are other threads that can help you with that.
Non English teaching related, as you are looking for, does buy you some negotiation power, however. |

4.1 million per month (plus free housing plus round trip flight(s)) at HUFS, if you have an MA and 10+ years experience; 3 days per week, 22 weeks paid vacation, 12 hours per week. That was 3 years ago, maybe more now; non-tenure track English teaching....
Must publish 10 page article each year (get 2-5 million for that).... |

Do they require a real MA from a western university, or do they take those MA's you can do over the internet via distance learning, like at that school in Australia? |

When read stuff like this I am reminded about why I left Korea. |

I think they now get a bit more per article.
Not sure about the rest. I know a guy who left our univ. for there. I'll have to ask. |

Thank you to everyone who bothered to actually read my question and post relevant replies. |
