Hi all,

My name is Don. I was in Korea for three months, August to October, teaching at Wonderland in Eunpyeong. I loved teaching and I loved the kids but manager and I didnt' get a long. It was a problematic school, 11 people quit or got fired in 9 months. The apartments were horrible. No one was there over a year.

Anyway, I would have stayed but I couldn't stand working with my manager so I left without sufficient notice. Now, I know the rules have changed with regard to requirements for new visa applications.

My question is, will I be able to get a new visa again in Korea? Some recruiters are working with me, but I am looking for another runner who got another visa successfully. My manager threatened something about blacklisting me with immigration, but I think she was lying. Can my previous employer prevent me from getting a new visa? I hear different responses.

I need to get back to work and I miss my friends in Korea, so please help with any advice!

Thanks,

Don
