I don't know about his sweaters, but I'd like to know where he was teaching...

I need to find out where our school's teacher's lounge is, as well as the separate teacher's cafeteria with a buffet lunch. I actually don't think they exist where I work, but it would be nice if they did!

I'm not sure if we have a copy person either, but it would make sense. I just have to figure out where that room is. Laughing

I know "Curl". He's a really funny guy. If you really want to know where he gets his sweaters or where he gets his har cut then I can find out for you.

sweaters please. The shirt from Lesson 3 was also noteworthy. Kwang pushes the boundaries of contemporary attire.

He said the clothes were just for the shoot from the film company, so I guess that aint much help. He said he gets his hair cut from a blind monk in Gangnam station.

Curl did say that he taped an episode where he was warning trainees to be ready to have problems with co-teachers, but when the uppers-up saw it they nixed it. Apparently they didn't want anything negative about the job (or Korea) to be in official training material.

Aren't there a bunch of vids that the NIIED, in conjunction with the SDA, put together to provide an intro to language teaching in Korea for new comers?

at my school there's a resting lounge for both men and women teachers.

We also have a teacher cafeteria room with a buffet lunch. In our case, the buffet means you take stuff out of the typical Korean options and they're very very few.

so he's definitely not making this up.

funny re the coteacher problem proposal and its obvious nixing.
