I'm studying contracts from potential schools, and I came across one that had a provision in case a war broke out.

Does anyone else have this clause?

I don't have my contract in front of me, but there's a clause that reads something like "This contract may be terminated in the case of war."

Honestly, sounds cool to me!

KPRROK, aren't you way down there in sunny Cheju? Buddy, for you that clause is a mere formality. If the kimchee ever hits the mysterious-fan-death up here, you'll be tanning your hairy hindquarters on the nude beaches of Sogwipo, and don't we all know it. Cool

Those of us stupid enough to call the mainland home, we'll just be "terminated", period -- regardless of any contract or clause. Mad

6.4 In the event that war, civil disturbances, or political conditions prompt a directive from the Republic of Korea or the government of employee's citizenship to leave Korea, this employment will be terminated as of the date of such directive.

Goes on to say that days worked up to said date, pro-rata severance pay and fixed amount of XXX, XXX won towards plane ticket will be paid.

Don't you all have this included?
