Moving to South Korea for 1 Year
Posted in Seoul forum 08 Oct 2008, 08:20
Hi, I'm moving to South Korea for one year to teach English. I am a bit nervous, but I am really excited. My main concern is finding a place to stay. I would love to rent a room in an apartment from someone. I am a well-kept person that loves people, and I am not your sterotypical person. I love to make friends. It does not matter if my roommate is male or female. I have amazing male best friends as well as female friends.

Korea has a lot to offer for a short term (1year) if you are an active person and so much for over 2 years of you are passive. Finding places to stay is not diffciult, but many owners ask for an up-front payment (from 5k to 25k USD/ year). Many schools that hire antive speakers of English offer housing. Ask on http://www.korea4expats.com/forum-south-korea/ for details
