More likely an oufit trying to sound a lot more legit than they really are or to sound as if the are backed by the Korean immigration office.

I highly doubt these two people have held all these positions.

Given that Immi officers must move every 2 years, it's not that unlikely if they're 50-something adjosshis... Just funny (knowing all they know about the dark side of the biz, both from the recruiter/hagwon owner and FOB 'teachers' side) they want to go down that path....

From having known people who have worked for K immigration, I've been told that most only work there from 2 to 5 years before leaving or getting themselves transfered to a different governement department.

They said the immigration department is considered the low of the low of government departments in Korea.

So i still stand by what i said.
