My gut instinct is that it's gonna be a good position.
My Korean friend works for Samsung and they treat their employees well. It's an international company, so I can't imagine they treat foreigners any worse. |

Yong-in there is good and bad.
Good
Pay is alright just watch your recruiter carefully and make sure you get paid everything.
There are some things to do on site.
Meals are taken care of (if you like Korean).
Not a bad way to make some contacts.
Bad
Away 5 days a week. You have to live in Yong-in.
Zero privacy. Your students live next door in the dorm.
You never leave work. start at 9 done at 4 or so, but never go home.
A little boring after a while.
