Thinking about it, it's really kind of embarrassing to be so miserly. It's okay though. Just wait it out for another job closer to work.

i personally think you should ask for 10 times the amount of your travel expenses because you deserve it because taking the subway is hard. don't take the job unless they up your salary by 4,400,000 won.

They can teach privates legally." - This isn't true of Korean teachers. For those under a public school contract, Korean or not, you're not allowed to do extra work on the side unless it is approved by the school. And some hagwons also apply this rule to their employees regardless of visa or citizenship class.

You're right about public school teachers. Hagwan teachers are free to do so though. If the school has a rule about it, they just go to another school.

What's a hagwon going to do? Fire them? Big deal. There's a hundred hagwons within a block radius to choose from.

What I'm getting at is it is much easier for Korean citizens to change jobs
or make things work better for them.
