Does anybody have any information about the "You and I" hagwons (I think there are 2 of them) in Gwangju?

I interviewed with a guy named Jason Fowler over a year ago. He is a co-owner of that hagwon. After one of the foreign teachers emailed me with a very strong warning not to work there, I declined the position.

Jason Fowler then emailed me to say that he was going to report me to immigration for accepting a position and then changing my mind (?). The tone of the email was disturbing and threatening.

The guy's a psycho. Don't take the job.

I've been offered the job but haven't signed yet. I just sent the director a list of questions about the contract...

No, nothing like that at all. I checked out the school and what I heard was terrible so I didn't agree to anything.

First, in August you claim that some canadian guy (named Fred!) threatens your family!
Now, you say another guy sends you a threatening email.
So, how many other people have threatened you?

Hi Fred.

So I guess all those terrible things that are being said about you and Longbridge Pacific on this forum finally prompted you to join?

And yes, after two disturbing incidents trying to find a job from Canada I just flew here.
