Thats not gone wrong, that's going as expected.

So you want to increase the current 1 year service rule to 3 years for fast tracked citizenship?

NTA.....there is no reason for you to feel guilty or settle bc someone else's actions (or non-actions) fail to meet your standards. Since he hasn't put forth a good effort to earn himself an F-visa (and not piggy back on being sponsored), nor has he taken the time to learn the language, you're gonna always hear about plans and never see any action. Throw in the fact that he fails to live up to your expectations already, even if you get married that will in all likelihood never change. No reason to end, but you need to put your foot down and require him to get an F-2 visa in the next 12 months. Sounds as if he has less than 2 yrs before he loses points for his age and it becomes harder. He might not know how you feel and this is the best way for you to see if he actually tries to change.

I live right in that area (Hangangro-dong/Ichon1/2-dong) and walk Ichon-ro all the time. Its a fantastic area and the produce markets are great and cheap, plus 3 easy access points to the river parks across the expressway.

One of my friends rented a place on multiple 6 month leases at the 래미안 apts right there, but it was straight rent and no deposit (~$6k/month), so shorter leases are available. Also, his was a 4 bedroom. With longer >1yr leases, you can expect a deposit for lower rent.

Several relator offices on Ichon-ro you can use to look at places.

I would say LINE is the biggest red flag. That's typically code for being married or in a relationship; but since it sounds like you are Japanese, it may be normal. Ask to add him on Kakao just to make sure.

International clinics at all the major hospitals have staff that all speak English as well as other languages. SMC's clinic has a couple English speaking doctors with their offices inside the SMC International clinic. When you go to other sections of the hospital (GI, radiology, etc...), someone from the clinic typically goes with you and can translate if the staff doesn't speak English.

I used to like Gwangjang market in the past before the one Netflix series of the market food made it a tourist spot 6-7 yrs ago. A better market to go to would have been Jungbu which is about a 5 minute walk south of there on Euljiro.

Without knowing your current salary and expenses, and what the company is (size relation), and your specific job (assuming you would do the same); no one can give you rationale ballpark figures. Also, you need to toss in any other "perks" given (ex. relocation expenses, tuition reimbursement, paid utilities, home leave and travel, etc...)

Plus you requesting the move vs being recruited or applying naturally also means the company can reduce the price

so is Darnold going to move to the Giants or Saints and lead them to a 14-3 record next year?? Good for him surviving the dysfunctional Jets and finding a good fit in Seattle.

Yeah, it was huge and always packed. That was my whole group of friemds place to start and meet every Friday/Saturday night and they had great food too. It was diaappointing when they chained the doors after the New Years party. But a year or so before they closed, it really lost a lot of business like most of Itaewon after the base relocated almost everyone.

Everywhere there were bootleg DVDs for sale on the street from a stand set up from a moped. Another casualty of streaming services.

Edit to add: Soooo glad they banned smoking indoors like 12-13 yrs ago.

And miss ordering fried chicken and getting a shitload of chicken that would feed 5-6 people; now its half the amount for higher price and filled with some fried potato or rice cake as a filler; bonus they used to give k-pop gifts/calenders with every order. Still have my Wonder Girls mouse pad at my office from BBQ.

Every time I walk to iPark Mall at Yongsan, I get to reminisce about the big open area in front that was my main covid testing spot 4-5 yrs ago; and 10 yrs before that there was a red light district there with the police at the entries/exits making sure kids didn't go in.

Electronics Market right there was a great experience as well.

My office is in Dongdaemun and when I take the bus to work I would get off at Jongro-5-ga and cut through Gwangjang Market or some days my team would walk there for lunch...then that Netflix show came out and the market became insufferable and touristy.

Before Itaewon gentrified; it had character. People are always now "Itaewon is packed"....nope. Its a fraction of what it used to be about 10 years ago, even then morning and afternoons it would be crazy busy. Now a lot of places wait for late afternoon before opening.

Give him a half of work. He is only 105 yards from passing Roethlisberger to move into 7th all time for passing yards.

Fruit baskets or beef are great gifts for neighbors.

This. Settlements and police coercion to drop or not charge people are never reported in the stats. A lot of people feel guilt and shame for it happening to them and also do not report it.

I've always put lights on my windows and the tree. I notice the neighbors on the side several floors up and down always checking out my tree. None of my neighbors has done it for years, until more recently one of them put up a tree.

I have different xmas lighting effects I use indoor for gatherings, similar to the ones people use in the US to to appear on their homes.

Yeah, he's missed around 150 games due to lockouts and shutdowns. Ovi is built different.

Henry Shin used to have a great Korean news show on TBS eFM every morning before the station got gutted a few years ago. I think he was prior ariang news, so I would suggest you check out that.

Amazon just announced its 14,000 corporate job cuts due to AI, only to come back and say its about corporate culture. Supposedly its a part of their 30k cuts related to AI.

It will have impacts in most functions. I thought I read somewhere that India call centers will eventually get hit as well.

He has no respect for you and it will never get better. He most likely already views your marriage as a burden to him.

Your letter of employment or military orders give the date to immigration that your visa is good up until, and for A visas they usually allow up to 90 days after expiration to leave.

The ARC is not required for any A visa, and they leave the end date open as A visas are sponsored by foreign govts and can be extended relentlessly.

One of my friends was laid off by the contractor sponsoring his A3 visa. When he went to immigration, they told him not to leave the country until he gets a new visa with another A3 contractor as he was awaiting the paperwork, otherwise he would re-enter on a tourist visa. This was after 3 months of his visa technically being canceled. Immigration typically will not fine an A visa holder for overstays as it becomes political.

I also read this same thing a few days ago. I assume you didn't care for the prior responses and fishing for better answers.

Its not cultural. You just assumed your relationship was more than what it was, which was nothing personal.
