    Hi Darren,

    I am an old Korean man, who spent college time in the US for 6 years. Just to let you know, as I had worked as an English teacher myself long ago though, that you are in fact considered as a native speaker, so don't you worried. However, Korean language institutes and schools indeed prefer teachers from western countries such as US, UK, and etc. But if you search harder, google harder, I truly believe that you will find one that you desire. It is really depending upon how hard you try and how low you can go down, I think.

    Also if you look for a job in Seoul, it will be harder. but if you expand the area to around metropolitan areas, you will have higher chance to find a job.

    Try to make a local friend first (Korean native preferably) by making an online friend or a Korean friend in Singapore, then ask him/her to recommend potential workplace after you talk and share your requirements.

    Hope this helped you a bit.
