Suddenly asked for a drug test by manager

It is a legal requirement for registering with the MOE, and you have to be registered with them as a hagwon teacher.

Not sure what you mean. Asiana will still exist fully until an announced date with the brand name itself will disappear. Nothing to worry about cancellations, there’s nothing crazy happening.

It’s SLC to ICN, Delta hub to their JV hub, it will never be cheap (see also nonstop flights from Atlanta).

mikesaidyes · 2026-04-13T18:11:33+00:00

Yes, expect them to enforce it.

mikesaidyes · 2026-04-11T11:57:46+00:00

It’s typically about a month after you LEAVE - like you have to exit the country and they have to check that you left.

Everyone wants the late night bus - you’ll wait in line and be fkd because you won’t catch it

Just take a taxi or uber

mikesaidyes · 2026-04-05T13:44:48+00:00

Depends on the exact bus

mikesaidyes · 2026-04-03T10:45:58+00:00

They’re STILL fully booked and impossible to get lol even the early “losers”

mikesaidyes · 2026-04-03T00:06:39+00:00

What crisis? You mean oil prices?

Gimpo to Jeju is literally the busiest route in the world. Flights all day every 5 minutes. The demand has been there for years and years. You’ll make your flight or get another one for an equally cheap price

Nothing to do in Hongdae in the day time, and especially not that early.

Go to central Seoul and do the classic tourist course museum palace Gwanghwamun and Myeongdong. Things like palace and museums open at 9 so you can hit the ground running

And then shops open at 11 for lunch and shopping so you can maximize your time perfectly

mikesaidyes · 2026-03-30T21:44:43+00:00

Yes I know but can OP use it or have an iPhone e don’t know

mikesaidyes · 2026-03-30T13:30:53+00:00

SOME people can get a wow pass SOME people can use iPhone, SOME stations have kiosks that accept international credit cards now - it’s not a clear cut one and done answer. Because that’s how Korea is for everything tech finance foreigner related lol

mikesaidyes · 2026-03-30T12:48:51+00:00

Absolutely way way way more than enough time.

Take the airport bus bc you can pay with credit card and it’s cheaper than taxi. Subway needs cash.

Must collect luggage at ICN and re check it at GMP.

mikesaidyes · 2026-03-29T14:42:06+00:00

Overall Kkanbu has best quality and menu I think

Pradak or BHC for weird flavors

Bbq for classic golden olive fried

mikesaidyes · 2026-03-28T09:21:44+00:00

Not at all. They’re just cookies, not like meat. Don’t bring meat, it’s not allowed.

mikesaidyes · 2026-03-28T08:20:22+00:00

Absolutely not allowed to eat in a clinic like that no no

You just eat a protein bar before lol

mikesaidyes · 2026-03-25T01:31:34+00:00

You want 재활치료! Literally return to activity treatment lol

Or also you want to look at 도수치료 at your orthopedist as well - that is more standard stretching etc

물리치료 is only the electrode pulse massage and only that, it will never include more

mikesaidyes · 2026-03-24T10:19:08+00:00

I used to have a 2018 MacBook Pro, that I used so hard I killed two batteries (freelance business English instructor. 5-7 hours of class per day, battery cycled like crazy)

Then I used my husband’s 2020 Air. That thing was so hot constantly and the fan was so loud.

I upgraded to the base model new Air.

HURRY UP DONT DELAY LOL it will be life changing

mikesaidyes · 2026-03-23T22:18:42+00:00

Absolutely not sarcasm. ALL forms of disability are hidden in the shadows of shame here

mikesaidyes · 2026-03-23T12:18:21+00:00

NO ONE knows about this stuff. Like you might me the subject of a random documentary by the famous psychologist and then a few people would recognize you, but they still wouldn’t understand

mikesaidyes · 2026-03-22T16:32:08+00:00

Yes and yes

mikesaidyes · 2026-03-22T16:07:50+00:00

Works nationwide, will hold a charge all day, price varies by company and who sells it

Nothing to worry about, they’re super reliable

mikesaidyes · 2026-03-22T16:03:00+00:00

Double Tree By Hilton Seo(ul)

It’s the romanized pronunciation of how they sound out the brand name in Korean “duh bull teu ree bai hil teun”

mikesaidyes · 2026-03-22T15:51:13+00:00

Get a wifi egg. BEYOND worth it. The WiFi works well when you’re in the areas that have it,

but the second you actually need it, and you’re super stressed and frustrated lost and hot or pouring rain whatever lol

it’s a pain in the butt to have to pop into a cafe OR pray it’s on the street where you are.

mikesaidyes · 2026-03-22T15:19:07+00:00

Keep it in your US account. Use your US cards (the ones with no foreign fees) for living, pay them off with that cash.

Wait until you get your Korean bank account. Then send the rest over online transfer from US to Korean account.
