Does anybody know how I can do this? Someone told me to try to find a ticket within1-3 days of today, and I do see that sometimes they are about $60-40 dollars cheaper. I've been looking on www.cheapoair.com and www.travelations.com which are about the same. The cheapest I can find in May seems to be middle of the month for approximately $640-704 after taxes.
I might not even do this and go through a recruiter since the flight will be free, but in some ways I think this may be a better option for me since I can see the places in person. The apt.and school, and I have relatives I can stay with. Am I applying too late, if I want to be working by June? Also, I've read that I can't get the f-4 until I arrive, and it takes 10 days.
Do you guys have any suggestions as far as schools or hagwons go, how I can find them directly through their website or yellowpages? |

Don't worry about cheap airfare. Just do some research of schools and let them pay for your airfare.
And since you'll be on F-4 visa, you are not tied down to the school that you work for like us E-2ers. You can quit and get another job any time and any where in Korea. |

He's right- if you want to quit, you can anytime and your visa won't be revoked. I'm so jealous of gyopos- regarding employment, they have all the benefits of Korean citizenship, but none of the bad stuff (like military service). |
