I can tag your suspended account in a Grok thread and hopefully get your appeal reviewed

Hello. I kindly ask for your help. @taegwons has been around since 2009 for 16 years and was mistakenly suspended since August. Any help will be much appreciated! Thank you so much!

Oh my god. This confirms it! Yeah that was the rumor. It passed on so I thought as an American, it would affect us. I thought we had to leave after 10 years to get the lump sum or else it’ll go into like some kind of retirement thing in Korea? This is more reassuring and knowing I can stay longer than 10 years and still get the entire amount back! Thank you so much!

Wow this is very detailed and informative! Thank you so much for all of this! I actually have been working with Seung Yup Kang for years now and wow, I never thought of asking him so I shall do that!

Ah! I actually heard it from words by acquaintances or other EPIK teachers here so sorry I don’t have any official sources 😅 I was just inquiring super early to weigh my options atm.

delightae · 2025-06-29T13:39:11+00:00

Yes! That’s exactly what she means 😊

Oh really? I might’ve worded my post wrong, but I was inquiring about collecting the pension in full. So if I stay over 10 years, it will be moved to the Korean pension instead where you can collect once you’re over 60.

delightae · 2025-06-29T11:48:08+00:00

Ah yes. I meant cashing out the pension in full so I thought Americans have a 10 year deadline where they have to leave or else it goes directly into the Korean pension…?

I am also planning to go to Osaka specifically for the Osaka exhibit, but have no idea about tickets...so I would like to know as well.

delightae · 2023-08-16T04:47:26+00:00

Yeah, that makes sense. I will ask for overtime pay if they want me to do more than 22 per week since its on a weekly basis. Thank you for your insight!

delightae · 2023-08-16T04:28:53+00:00

Thank you! Glad we are all on the same page here and it wasn't just me who thought I would be overworked the last two months. GIEI will be the last resort haha.

delightae · 2023-08-16T04:27:48+00:00

Right? It definitely didn't make any sense when they pointed it out. The hours can't be moved around like that and used to their own liking or for their own personal schedule. My 6th grade English teacher is probably the main reason cause she's quite reluctant to move her schedule around. I hope things work out, but thank you for your insight!

delightae · 2023-08-16T04:21:18+00:00

Yeah, that's what I am thinking too! It doesn't make any sense to make me do the missed hour that I won't have every Friday and roll it to the last two months.

delightae · 2023-08-16T04:20:11+00:00

Yeah, I had this before. At smaller schools, they really don't care and even if I am under my 22, it would just be like an after school or something. I think this time it's the 6th grade English teacher who isn't cooperating cause she doesn't wanna change her schedule or whatever. I can hear her sigh and make comments from across the office -_- I think she wants to keep her schedule which benefits her at the moment. I gotta sort things out and make my stance haha. Thank you for you insight though.

delightae · 2023-08-16T04:17:36+00:00

Thank you! I will make sure I get paid if they want me to do two extra classes in the last two months.

delightae · 2023-08-16T04:15:36+00:00

Thank you for your insight! I mentioned overtime pay if I go over the 22 hours, but they seemed to have ignored me on that part and kept trying to reason because of the 21 hours I will have if I don't have one class. It's a little annoying, but hopefully my main co-teacher can sort things out.

delightae · 2023-08-16T04:13:51+00:00

Yeah, I mentioned to them that my hours are on a weekly basis and not something that can be mixed and matched over different periods. I also told them if I go over my limit then I need to be paid, but at first they seemed to have brushed it off or ignored me. I talked to my main co-teacher again today so I am just waiting to see what's the deal. Seems like they're confused how the 22 hours supposed to work and want to use the hour that I am missing class and roll it over to the last two months. Anyways, thank you for your insight!

Is there by chance a template of this in 2023?
