CHEONAN. (supposedly it's a smaller hakwon with 4~ teachers)

but any info regarding the school itself would help.

thanks

I doubt that it's the same school. I spoke to a director at Park Jung Young in Yeosu, not in Cheonan.

The one in Yeosu seemed a bit suspect. Alarm bells were ringing when I found out the recent teacher pulled a midnight runner, tax was charged at 5%, payment made on the 18th of the following month, 60 minute = 1 teaching hour, had to buy my own ticket, 7 days holiday. And the rest...

As I mentioned though, this information is probably irrelevant as I don't think it was a chain school.

Good luck.

Is this the place that advertises on bus stops and whatnot with a green background, and a Korean, "Park Jung" himself presumably, sporting a moustache!!!!?

Just received a similar offer. Seem very suspect from the emails I've received from them.
