I've checked some of the blacklists and have seen LCI Kids club on one or two, but only for the ones in different cities. Since a lot of these places seem to be franchised it's hard to tell if it's a company policy or just bad directors.

So, that being said, does anyone where have any experience with this particular school, or know someone who has? I haven't talked to the school yet, the recruiter just sent me the job listing yesterday and I'm doing to leg work on it and I wanted to check here as well.

Thanks,

Stay away from the one in Dongchundong, Yeonsu-gu. The owner, Jung, and his cronie, Park, are pure evil. I can give lots of examples. 2001 was the worst year of my life thanks to that f***ing hakwon. Thought of burning it down many, many a time. I worked at a YES Youngdo, and I really recommend that school. That was in 2002, though. Yes, LCI was in 2001, but that school will never change. The directors will burn in hell- knwing that is what got me through my year there. In hindsight, I never should've fulfilled my contract...

I appreciate the input, but that doesn't really answer my question. I'm referring to the one in Incheon City.

Large Korean cities are divided into districts, called a gu. Then the district is divided into a very, very large neighborhood (for lack of a better word), called a dong. I would say Incheon easily has around 10 LCI KC's. If you want specific info. about a school, you need to specify the exact location. Anyway, I'd say avoid LCI altogether. I know several people who have had negative experiences there. Inchon people don't have the greatest reputation, either, even among Koreans. I live in Seoul, and the people are more refined and polite here compared to Incheon people.
