When it comes to the routine health check, yeah. 4 other EPIK teachers that did them at the same time as me. We just picked them up and each gave them to our teachers because it was no big deal. Believe it or not, the average NET that is just here for a year or two isn't that concerned over this. They're more interested in eating for the first time in 12 hours and the fact that we're in a relatively big city compared to our podunk town. Time to hit up EMart and Homeplus, go to a movie, shop, and eat at a non-Korean restaurant. Not make meticulous copies of a routine physical that's just a formality.

I get taxed once a year for my car. I may have this years receipt lying around. Old ones have gotten thrown away. I'm not a paper hoarder. It's been two years since I worked for EPIK.


But you aren't the average NET (according to you). How long have you been teaching in EPIK? How many tests have you done?

Btw, your 4 friends that you claim did that are fictitious. You then pile on the same crap that you always do here.

You are lying if you say that you don't keep any of your documents.


I did 5 years in EPIK. I did 5 tests. A perfect excuse to go to Jinju and do some shopping and a day off of work.

Dude, my friends aren't fictitious. Heck, go to an English language church service (most are filled with Korean-Americans), find out which ones are teaching English and then do a visa poll. Depending on the crowd you'd get anywhere from 10% to maybe 20%. Now if you look at Korean-American TaLK scholars, I bet that number jumps up to maybe 40% or possibly more.

5 years with a steady stream of replacements and TaLK scholars. No, they're not fictitious. Everyone had to go and get tested. Not to mention casual acquaintances that I don't even remember.

5 years with EPIK personally, yes? In those 5 years you, the guy that considers and uses all possible scenarios when responding to people, never once felt that it would be a good idea to have kept a health check record on yourself? I find that way out of the ordinary for people I know. Why are your circle of friends so different than mine?
