On the lighter side......story time.

You earn 2.3 million a month. You don't teach but you can't earn any more money (privates). You have one year in Korea - and only in Korea. What would you do with all your free time?

The ellipsis error aside, learn which coordinating conjunction to use in compound sentences. That's one strange use of "but". The meaning is unclear. Cozy up with a grammar book at bedtime and improve your communication skills. Add a sleeping dictionary for the heck of it.

Are you single? Start a gym habit. Lift weights. Learn some korean or another language. Make some local friends. I dunno, I have nothing earth shattering to tell you. Don't waste your year drinking.

First, I'd do some deep mediation reflecting on things I am interested in. I would then proceed to use this information to help me narrow down the vast options of things I could be doing during my free time. Finally, I would go out and do one of these things.

I don't know man. What everyone comes there to do.
Save money and move on to a real life somewhere else

I'm not sure what a real life means anymore. I have nowhere else to go and nothing else to do.
