In my opinion, it is one of the least welcoming places in Asia for anyone who does not speak Korean.

I've always been treated really well in Korea, when I went to Japan the nicest person that I met there was Korean-Japanese...

Yea, it thought this was an interesting take on the situation since this woman was born and raised in Asia and is an English speaker now living Seoul.

it is nearly impossible to find teachers willing to come to Korea following the attacks in the local press.

Now that's just goofy. How many people who aren't even in Korea have any idea about these goofy hatchet stories or give a *beep* about them? Anyway, us whities have been off the hook ever since the Dokdo thingie started blowing it, it seems that the Korean news media can only be outraged about one set of people at a time.



Well put. Dokdo also has foreigners in mind. And guess what Koreans love? You know it.... blame the damn foreigners for everything! (Please correct me if I am wrong)
