Hey everyone,

I have to say I have been a little discouraged lately about the Korean job market. My wife and I have been looking forward to going to Korea and teaching English for a few years now. My wife is an English Teacher and has been teaching English for one year. I have my Bachelor of Arts and graduated in December.
We were planning on going to Korea this summer in August. We contacted a recruiter and she said that the market in Korea is very slow, but may pick up during the summer months. My wife has to give notice in April to her school and we are worried she will give her notice and we won't find a job in Korea. Some say couple positions are also hard to come by.
Can anyone speak to this? We aren't picky about location or school (private/public). Any advice would be helpful.
