 |
|
How long is one banned from Korea after being deported for teaching privates by immigration? How much is the fine? What happens if you can't pay the fine? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Nick |

| If you dont know why are you considering even doing privates? If you have to ask,it means that you cant deal with the consequences. |

Two years for visa violations. Possibly more for tax fraud if Immigration decides to make an example.

Generally between 500,000 and 1,000,000 Won, but there is no upper limit if an example wishes to be made.

You sit in jail until someone from your home country pays the fine.

you're a bit rude today aren't you?
Before I came to Korea, I did not know the laws about privates. Yet, I considered it. So that means I could not deal with the consequences even though I didn't know what they were?
You don't make much sense.
The guy is obviously trying to educate himself as to the consequences so he himself can make that judgement call whether or not the benifits outweigh the consequences or not.
Don't judge people unless you're either (A) a judge, or (b) God. |

I would write it as

Unlike you, the guy who posted, DOES know the laws about privates. He pointed out that you get deported from Korea. He knows they are illegal.
Read the first post again, carefully. Then read Canuck's post. He makes perfect sense. |

| Exactly. The guy is fully aware of the illegality of privates and the possible consequences. His only question is about the EXTENT of those consequences, and as I said, if he has to ask, he cant deal with them. If I had 10 million bucks, I wouldnt ask howmuch that BMW costs. Id buy it. The guy goes on to ask what would happen IF he cant pay the fines. Well, seems to me that he already knows he cant deal with it. |

What makes you think that I don't know the consequences?

He knows the laws, yes. He does not know the consequences.
Where did I say he did not know they are illegal?

Um, okay. Now your turn. Read it again.

No he does not.
Mr Romantic is not asking whether teaching privates are legal or illegal. He is asking about the consequences of teaching them. Obviously he does not know the consequences and thus is asking for information regarding them. But someone decides to basically attack the guy because he asked a question?
Nice way to treat newbies to this forum....someone asks a question, then someone else with a bit of experience attacks the guy.

That's my whole point. This statement does not make sense.
How can one deal with the consequences when one does not know all the consequences?
Being deported is not the only thing can can happen to you if you're caught doing privates, and the poster, unlike you pair, wanted clarity.
At least Gord answered the guy...

Get a dictionary and look up the word "consequence". He is (or rather was not) not fully aware of the consequences, which is why he posted the damn question in the first place.

Um, wake up! Not knowing the exent of the consequences is actually not being fully aware of them.

Which is a stupid statement because as I said "you cannot deal with something if you do not have all the facts".

Which is not very pennywise.

Which is a valid question on a JOB DISCUSSION FORUM.

Seems to me you offer only critisism and can't deal with helping people when they need it.
The guy came here with his hand out looking for information, and you bit his finger. |
