| Curious what many of you think, know, and/or have heard about working in Incheon. I would prefer Seoul, but being that I am looking into public school positions through EPIK, Seoul seems to be out of the question. |

I just moved to Incheon about 3 weeks ago and I'm cool with it so far. It's close enough to Seoul that I have no problems going in to do whatever I need to do by subway or bus, but I'm far enough away that I'm not doin too much and spending too much.
What part of Incheon are you looking at? A lot of people say to go for the Bupyeong area, and it's nice there. I'm north of that (about 10 minues) and I head down there occasionally. But I've got everything I need here.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Thanks for the input:D As to where in Incheon, I'm not actually sure. I would deeply desire as urban of a location as possible. I have heard that Incheon is the second largest city to Seoul, that does not carry the sa-ddoo-ri -country style- dialect (forgive the poor interpretation). Is the Bupyeong area you mentioned urban or somewhat rural?
Also, since you have been to both Seoul and Incheon, how would you say the two cities compare to one another? |

| There exists a good bit of talk about Incheon here. I recommend Mansu dong, friendly, easygoing, ....wait a minute.... I recommend avoiding Mansu dong and incheon entirely but that's just me |
