Also known as the Hermit Kingdom, (because of its unwillingness to open its doors to foreign neighbors until the mid 1900's) Korea is a modern country located in the heart of Asia with 5000 years of rich history and culture, exotic foods and warm and friendly people.  It is also a country that embraces both the old and the new, with temples hundreds of years old right next to modern high rises and trendy department stores.  And While the cost of living in Korea is very reasonable, the standard of living is very high, allowing you to save major portion of your tax exempt income. 

It has also become the premiere destination for native English speaking ESL & EPIK teachers from around the world who are looking for a combination of rewarding job and travel opportunities.  And because of its central location and close proximity to Tokyo, Beijing, Hong Kong, Bangkok, etc., most take advantage of their weekends and paid holidays to travel to neighboring countries and experience their own unique brand of history and culture as well.  "You will join thousands of individuals like yourself who are up to the challenge of an overseas adventure!"
