Is there an organization that offers support, legal advice or just a shoulder to cry on for ESL teachers in Korea?
With so many incidents of teachers being busted for, let's say, putting on an "illegal performance" or the countless problems teachers have dealing with their bosses, is there anywhere one can go to learn their rights as foreigners here?

Any info would be appreciated

Follow the link Jay.

Also...you might not find much of a shoulder to cry on if you get arrested for breaking a local law......I mean, it is a law afterall and should a teacher choose to break it, they have to be ready to deal with and accept that there could be consequences!

As for getting cheated by a school, you can also contract the Labour Board.
