@@baydaissi2702 actually South Korea has one of the lowest crime rate in the world, followed by Japan... To the point that Kids under 10 travel to school alone and stayed outdoors until late hours studying and travelling between different cram classes... 😊😊😊
I’m watching too much Kdrama and ended up here looking for videos about working in South Korea 😂 and it’s funny because I came across your video and was like heyy I know this guy! I remember you from a school trip that came to a resort I work at. Greetings from Indonesia, Mike! Enjoying the videos! feels like you taking us for a walk through the neighborhood while talking about job possibilities in South Korea 🤗
i am currently 12 years old and i am already planning my life for my future 😅😅😅 (Guys i am 13 now KSKSKSK found my job i wanna be a "flight attendant" AUYAYAY)
Er... hagwons aren't the only places to teach English in South Korea. You missed the public sectors: EPIK and GOE (my employer). There's also teaching English to adults. Secondly, some places require a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certification, instead of TESOL. Make sure you check the requirements before applying to your certificate program and/or school. Lastly, it's illegal (at least on an E-2) to work multiple jobs at one time. So as a public school teacher here, I'm not allowed to then be a teacher at a hagwon after school for extra income. I'd get kicked out!
Funny you say this. My next video is ALL ABOUT EDUCATION! I will go into EPIK, International school teaching, hagwons, etc. Any information (besides from what you wrote above) you think I should include? I’ve never worked for public schools here.
@@MiKole86 Awesome, can't wait! If there's time, one thing I didn't see a lot of when researching to come here is the foreign/Korean co-teacher relationship. I have 2 main co-teachers and 7 homeroom co-teachers and the dynamics between each of us are completely different. Some are very hands off and allow me to actually teach, while others only have me there to press the button on the computer and pronounce certain words. Some love for me to speak up and show my knowledge of the English language, and others get prefer you not say anything (even if they're completely wrong, which is a huge flaw/problem). Thankfully, the students are very smart and often know the correct way to say certain things. But the relationship with those kinds of co-teachers is a bit strained, if not strange. You kind of feel helpless. Anyway, love these videos!
I heard that was the case with some schools. That is so weird! You would think a person with mastery of the language would be listened too. Glad you like the videos by the way!
I like the back alleys. It shows the flavor of the neighborhood. I hope people that go to teach really care about wanting to help the kids to learn and not just make it about going to Korea to party or something.
Your vlog style really caught my attention. The fact that you just cruised the streets and talked was unique imo! Don’t u miss those days lol ?! Even though I am married to a South Korean man and don’t need to worry too much about a work visa but eventually I will want to work and become independent. Thanks for the info and giving tips to others !
I'm trying to find a part-time job in Busan. My Korean friend and I are opening a bar in Busan but I want to work in that area for a little bit first to get to know the area and make friends. I taught English in Korea for 2.5 years, studied abroad in Korea for 6 months, I have a TESOL, a bachelor's, and an Associate degree. I just want something very part-time so I can get to know the nightlife and the area. If I can get a job at a university that would be great or an after school program that ends around 6pm.

Well only happens if you already know some people.. or getting approached randomly and with luck on the streets or you register on websites, also depends on luck and your koran language skills.
What about having a little skill on truck driving, forklift and mobile crane operation.. What are my chances of getting a job, or getting retrained in South korea and securing a job
You can but it’s very unlikely due to the fact that most cafe chains would look for Koreans especially students due to their obvious language barriers and they could possibly get away with underpaying them etc etc.
You would need visa and need the business to sponsor your visa, it cost the business out of their pockets to sponsor your visa so they would rather have a fluent Korean who they don’t need to sponsor a visa for. Why would the sponsor someone who doesn’t known conversational Korean when there’s a bunch of Koreans to hire. Not only that, when companies sponsor a visa, they want to be very careful. If a person gets a sponsored visa then commits a crime, steals a hat or whatever gets in a fight, that company will also get in trouble and have to pay a fine. Which is why it’s not as easy to get a visa since companies don’t like risk. Also in Korean law it is said that a Korean will be chosen over an foreigner. If the job cannot be done by a Korean, then a foreigner can get the job which is why so many foreigners are either English teacher, in entertainment or have highly professional jobs because they can other work that a Korean can’t really do. Like Koreans can’t pretend to be fake foreigners in entertainment so they hire a foreigner to show perspective.
Amazing video as always! Thanks for the valuable information! I enjoy working with kids and I love being challenged so I'm going to head to the link you provided. This week I'm also going to look into getting my TESOL so I'll have that under my belt. I want to also work as an artist, since I have a passion for art as well and I can work on that in my spare time.

Hello! Thank you for this video. I used to teach at a major hagwon in Korea. I now teach in China. Do you know anyone who is teaching at major companies like Samsung? When I lived in Seoul, these jobs were very hard to come by. I last taught in Seoul in 2011. Thank you and keep up the great work!

What about technical jobs/skills? Web/tech/etc? Years ago moderate web skills (HTML) could get you a visa in some countries. I wonder how flooded the market is and what kind of skills they would want from outside tech employees.. In the US particularly the west coast, even a year of tech training can land you a 6 figure job because the shortage of skilled workers. Does Korea have a “startup visa” like Japan? If I remember correctly Japan has one where you can come in with a bucket of money under a business Visa, and then another for like 6 months or something then you create a company with a native and your visa changes... something like that..
There are investment visas available in Korea. The amount of money needed is absurdly high, if I remember correctly. Korea is not really interested in foreign owned businesses and seems to make it as hard as they possibly can for non-Koreans to run businesses.
@@MiKole86 Well, when I'm old enough I want to go on a working Visa to SK so I can experience Korea and still get money at the same time. So, with you making this video, it was really useful 'cause you gave tips and what types of visas I could get. :)
Hey Mikole. I work in the oil-industry here in Norway. I've wanted to move to Korea for several years but never happened. My experience is in import/export, logistics, and project handling. Wierd there's not more listed in this bracket seeing it's a harbour country with huge import and export.
How about working as a nanny? For a private family ? Or after school programs. I do not speak Korean yet. I also work for Costco in Hawaii. Maybe I can transfer ?
I had no idea there were different 학원 besides English teaching. As I am an employed and certified Taekwondo instructor in the USA would I be able to do the same work with kids in South Korea? I’m curious about what qualifications I would need or where I can search for more information. I’m so glad I found this video!! Thank you for making it.
You could work in a factory. That's about it. And if you aren't from one of the seven (I believe?) approved countries, you can't teach English in Korea either.
Wow thank u, love your videos, u are very encouraging! Have u been Tokyo as well? I can’t decide between Tokyo and Seoul… but actually I wanna do both lol ! Hope to End up In Asia very soon 👻 all the best!
Wow I taught English and hated it so publications sounds like an actual great idea. Airline hostess sounds great too but I think now with COVID it’s not as easy to get
I'm curious if Korean companies with American clients ever need someone stateside to assist with clients, kinda like an virtual assistant. Thanks, really enjoyed the stream
Awesome video. Let’s just make clear, KA expects a TOPIK level 3/4 if based in Seoul. And you gotta be in their “standards”, and by that I mean, reasonable skinny, about 163cm (5’3) and well groomed. NO visible tattoo (area where uniform doesn’t cover). NO piercings (again, where can be seen on uniform). And so on. So please, research before making a decision boys and girls.
great video, Mike! If you use short clips from Hollywood movies, TH-cam doesn't send you copyright strikes? It's something I've wanted to do, but wasn't sure about all the policies. And I am also terrified of the drivers in Korea. They do not slow down at all when they are near pedestrians!
Samsung hires A LOT of engineers here. Like seriously. There are also other companies here that are looking for help in IT. But if you want Samsung... research.samsung.com/careers
Hi! Question: I work completely remotely from my laptop and am just wondering if it’s legal to do my remote work in Korea just on the 3 month tourist visa (I’m a US citizen). I’m having a surprisingly difficult time finding a straight answer to this online... I’d just love to spend a 2-3 month period of time in Korea but also do my online job while I’m there. Thanks for all your videos!
Well I`m not an expert, but I figure you`d definetly need to be able to speak Korean fluently. But I doubt getting a job in that field will be easy, because Koreans are still very conservative and probably would much rather go see a native Korean psychologist than a foreign one... Personal experience, I live in Germany and have never seen a foreign psychologist here. I don`t think it`s that common to work in that field in another country
@@__-ul1lr Aw man, I would definitely work really hard to learn Korean fluently and develop a well-informed insight into the culture and society, but I can't do anything about how I look :/
I think that it might work, because Foreign professionalist can be seen as high-class. Also Korea is lacking of professionals, doctors etc.. for my part i wanted to work as a criminal psychologist but yea.. kinda though..
Very useful video, thank you! Do you have any advice in finding an entertainment management? I’d like to get into this field but I saw videos on TH-cam how agencies didn’t pay, and once the whole model agency was closed and models were deported for 5 years because the owner provided fake papers about the agency (even though all visas were real), so I’m kind of paranoid now 😅
Found your channel recently.love it! I’m going to Korea in the fall to teach probably at a hagwon. Do you know anything about how to figure out which hagwons are good and which ones are not? Thanks!
Hey! Thank you so much for finding me and liking my content. If you want to work at a hagwon, there are small ones, but the big ones are April Cheongdam, Megastudy, and Daesung. I would check those out because they are established companies. It would be hard for them to cheat you out of any money or do shady stuff.
Found you through Rachel Kim. I like your perspective and honesty. I am a professional chef and would love to come to Korea. I am in love with the culture, food and language. I am teaching myself Korean. I am way old though(almost 40). I know the older you are the worse it is. Do you know anything about visitor visas. I know you can stay about 90 days and then you have to leave. Are there any other visas that would would cover me being a professional chef?
Hey I saw that your next video will be about Korean education and I've always wondered if I would still be eligible for the job as the websites I've stumbled acrossed mentioned that being a "native English speaker" is a requirement. I was born in Germany but I moved to the UK when I was 11 so my English has become fluent and it's actually much better than my German. I don't know if I could still be considered a "native speaker" though. Thank you for this video though.
Love this video! Thanks! I was wondering if it’s possible to get a job as a pharmacist in Korea if you have a master in pharmaceutical of science in countries like Denmark?
I'm interested in a lot of things I even want to goto college in korea But either for music, child services (like foster kids or orphanages) But if I have to, I'll be an English teacher, won't really bug me to be a teacher tbh. As long as I can live there and it's decent. Pray I can get back into school tho or get my GED🥺
i want to get a job in korea! any job that suit me and respect, but i didn't went to college i just finished my school in the middle! and something when i thought about this i always hopeless cause i only see people who went to school and college and university they only can get job anywhere around the word! :(
Really love being translator, communicating with people. Love s.korea too,but still need to know where to find who need translator & what kind of translator they need. Might need to search websites for it like the one for English teacher right. BTW, love the content & surroundings also, very nice. Pls stay safe. Tq

Id love to know more about nursing! I'm a german geriatric nurse and work in a hospital now as a regular nurse. I think its especially hard because the german education is so different that nothing seems to be okay over there. Also I'm not a native english speaker so I cant apply to plenty of jobs such as teaching english. I'd also like more in general about jobs for people that do not come from an english speaking country
I know some people who still teach English. You just have to find a spot that allows you to do so. Also, I KNOW there are programs for nursing exchanges. I spoke with a Korean friend who trying to get into an exchange program like that here. If you research exchange nursing programs in Korea, I’m sure you’ll find something
@@MiKole86 thats a great tip thank you! Because I do love the nursing field but I'd dislike if I had to study everything again if I decide to move to Korea xD

I want to go into the tech industry within south korea. My goal is to teach English for a bit and learn as much korean as possible and than go into the tech industry (cyber security) but knowing me if I enjoy teaching English to children than I'll stick with that. (I'm good with kids)
As far as I know, you cannot really teach english there if english is not your native language, even if you're really good at it. You have to have a passport from an english speaking country. So this is mostly just for native english speakers who wanna go and teach english in korea, but people from europe? The chance is pretty small, I think.
Hey, I’m sorry I’m so late to this video but recently I’ve been looking into modelling in South Korea and was wondering if you could maybe talk about that because I’m struggling to find information on the highest paying agencies and the overall best agencies to go to. Thank you!

@@MiKole86 Well, when I'm old enough I want to go on a working Visa to SK so I can experience Korea and still get money at the same time. So, with you making this video, it was really useful 'cause you gave tips and what types of visas I could get. :)
Hmm what about the healthcare system? I’m working on my MSN and contemplating of moving to South Korea
That's what I wanna know
Hey Mikole.
I work in the oil-industry here in Norway.
I've wanted to move to Korea for several years but never happened.
My experience is in import/export, logistics, and project handling.
Wierd there's not more listed in this bracket seeing it's a harbour country with huge import and export.
Nice to meet you! If you decide to come this way, I hope you find a job!
How about working as a nanny? For a private family ? Or after school programs. I do not speak Korean yet. I also work for Costco in Hawaii. Maybe I can transfer ?
Love this guy
Hey, I'd really appreciate if you could find any information on engineering jobs in Korea, specifically in the rail sector. Thank you in advance 🙏🙏
tell us more Mikole, what about driving or general worker jobs
Thank you so much 😊
I'd like to learn more if I could enter in an accounting firm in Korea or any accounting/finance job related.
Me too, as that is what I am studying now in the UK
I had no idea there were different 학원 besides English teaching. As I am an employed and certified Taekwondo instructor in the USA would I be able to do the same work with kids in South Korea? I’m curious about what qualifications I would need or where I can search for more information. I’m so glad I found this video!! Thank you for making it.
thank you bro.... I am planing on finding a job in korea... thanks for the info..
Thank you so much for this video Mike! What are some other possible jobs that foreigners can work in besides those mentioned in this video?
You could work in a factory. That's about it. And if you aren't from one of the seven (I believe?) approved countries, you can't teach English in Korea either.
Your video really help me view the realty of Korea. but is there any job as a French teacher in Korea?
I know a few ladies here who teach French who are from North Africa. It’s doable!
Wow thank u, love your videos, u are very encouraging!
Have u been Tokyo as well? I can’t decide between Tokyo and Seoul… but actually I wanna do both lol ! Hope to End up
In Asia very soon 👻 all the best!
Nice video!! I'd like to know about business jobs 😁😌
thank you for the great videos i really enjoyed it. :)
Glad you loved it!
Wow I taught English and hated it so publications sounds like an actual great idea. Airline hostess sounds great too but I think now with COVID it’s not as easy to get
Thankyou soo much this video is very helpful!! Can you provide a brief information about how to look for vacancies in publications??
Thank you for making this video and for your honesty! Also, I love your personality 😁
I'm curious if Korean companies with American clients ever need someone stateside to assist with clients, kinda like an virtual assistant. Thanks, really enjoyed the stream
Not really. Most companies actually run English classes for their workers so they can prepare for international trips where English is required.
Yeah, Kyle is right. Doesn't mean you still can't come over and do work or work for a Korean company in America.
Thank you for the tips and inspiration. I will study study Korean. My question is working in a pizza joint can a foreigner open a small restaurant?
There are many foreigners who have businesses here. Come give it a shot!
@@MiKole86 Thank you I shall and meet you in Korean then friend!
Awesome video. Let’s just make clear, KA expects a TOPIK level 3/4 if based in Seoul. And you gotta be in their “standards”, and by that I mean, reasonable skinny, about 163cm (5’3) and well groomed. NO visible tattoo (area where uniform doesn’t cover). NO piercings (again, where can be seen on uniform). And so on. So please, research before making a decision boys and girls.
what is KA?

great video, Mike! If you use short clips from Hollywood movies, TH-cam doesn't send you copyright strikes? It's something I've wanted to do, but wasn't sure about all the policies. And I am also terrified of the drivers in Korea. They do not slow down at all when they are near pedestrians!
What about getting a job in the IT world? Like at a Cyber security company
Samsung hires A LOT of engineers here. Like seriously. There are also other companies here that are looking for help in IT. But if you want Samsung... research.samsung.com/careers
If you're an American you can check out USAjobs.gov. They look for people to work on military bases around the world.
Girl I was wondering the same. Sadly I don't have a Bachelor's and I know Korea is all about that University paper
Can persons from the Caribbean become teachers there for example jamaicans
Why not,I reckon if you meet the criteria,you should?
thank you for the tips, i would like to know about the hospitality industry and how to apply. I would of love to do this. hmmm
Lol... I like your humor skills 😂😂😂. Love you man
Nice bro... for me i install and run cctv in the united arab emirates i dont know how possible that is in Korea..
Won't work.
Hi! Question: I work completely remotely from my laptop and am just wondering if it’s legal to do my remote work in Korea just on the 3 month tourist visa (I’m a US citizen). I’m having a surprisingly difficult time finding a straight answer to this online... I’d just love to spend a 2-3 month period of time in Korea but also do my online job while I’m there. Thanks for all your videos!
I believe you can do that on a tourist visa
You can use holiday visa for up to a year stay or just normal tourist visa for 3 months
What about getting a job as a psychologist in Korea being a foreigner? Could you tell us more about that?
Well I`m not an expert, but I figure you`d definetly need to be able to speak Korean fluently. But I doubt getting a job in that field will be easy, because Koreans are still very conservative and probably would much rather go see a native Korean psychologist than a foreign one... Personal experience, I live in Germany and have never seen a foreign psychologist here. I don`t think it`s that common to work in that field in another country
@@__-ul1lr Aw man, I would definitely work really hard to learn Korean fluently and develop a well-informed insight into the culture and society, but I can't do anything about how I look :/
I think that it might work, because Foreign professionalist can be seen as high-class. Also Korea is lacking of professionals, doctors etc.. for my part i wanted to work as a criminal psychologist but yea.. kinda though..
@@leckerbambi1019 I feel you, I wanted to be a criminal psychologist growing up. Tough field to get into regardless of the country. Good luck though!
@@vphilendra you too my bruddah :D
Very useful video, thank you!
Do you have any advice in finding an entertainment management? I’d like to get into this field but I saw videos on TH-cam how agencies didn’t pay, and once the whole model agency was closed and models were deported for 5 years because the owner provided fake papers about the agency (even though all visas were real), so I’m kind of paranoid now 😅
I need to know about getting a security job in South Korea
You have to be a native Korean speaker.
That is exactly what I'm looking for! Please let me know if you find anything
Found your channel recently.love it! I’m going to Korea in the fall to teach probably at a hagwon. Do you know anything about how to figure out which hagwons are good and which ones are not? Thanks!
Hey! Thank you so much for finding me and liking my content. If you want to work at a hagwon, there are small ones, but the big ones are April Cheongdam, Megastudy, and Daesung. I would check those out because they are established companies. It would be hard for them to cheat you out of any money or do shady stuff.
Found you through Rachel Kim. I like your perspective and honesty. I am a professional chef and would love to come to Korea. I am in love with the culture, food and language. I am teaching myself Korean. I am way old though(almost 40). I know the older you are the worse it is. Do you know anything about visitor visas. I know you can stay about 90 days and then you have to leave. Are there any other visas that would would cover me being a professional chef?
I would like to know more about tour management jobs! 감사합니다
Hey I saw that your next video will be about Korean education and I've always wondered if I would still be eligible for the job as the websites I've stumbled acrossed mentioned that being a "native English speaker" is a requirement. I was born in Germany but I moved to the UK when I was 11 so my English has become fluent and it's actually much better than my German. I don't know if I could still be considered a "native speaker" though. Thank you for this video though.

Ahh Dongdaemun! Very cool area.
Love this video! Thanks!
I was wondering if it’s possible to get a job as a pharmacist in Korea if you have a master in pharmaceutical of science in countries like Denmark?
13 years old and I’m already planning on moving to Korea
Same 😅
R u Ethiopian? Just asking
@@adyam_j yuppp lol did my name give it away💀
I'm interested in a lot of things
I even want to goto college in korea
But either for music, child services (like foster kids or orphanages)
But if I have to, I'll be an English teacher, won't really bug me to be a teacher tbh. As long as I can live there and it's decent.
Pray I can get back into school tho or get my GED🥺
i want to get a job in korea! any job that suit me and respect, but i didn't went to college i just finished my school in the middle! and something when i thought about this i always hopeless cause i only see people who went to school and college and university they only can get job anywhere around the word! :(
Really love being translator, communicating with people. Love s.korea too,but still need to know where to find who need translator & what kind of translator they need. Might need to search websites for it like the one for English teacher right. BTW, love the content & surroundings also, very nice. Pls stay safe. Tq
minesyclopedia khanz rudy Thank you! I enjoy making content like this!
@@MiKole86 keep going. You're in a great way helping others and hope u happy doing this as u love it. Thanks for the info though. Appreciate it as I'm planning to stay in s.korea, so all info are needed. 👍👍😉 Kuddos to u

Id love to know more about nursing! I'm a german geriatric nurse and work in a hospital now as a regular nurse. I think its especially hard because the german education is so different that nothing seems to be okay over there. Also I'm not a native english speaker so I cant apply to plenty of jobs such as teaching english.
I'd also like more in general about jobs for people that do not come from an english speaking country
I know some people who still teach English. You just have to find a spot that allows you to do so.
Also, I KNOW there are programs for nursing exchanges. I spoke with a Korean friend who trying to get into an exchange program like that here. If you research exchange nursing programs in Korea, I’m sure you’ll find something
@@MiKole86 thats a great tip thank you! Because I do love the nursing field but I'd dislike if I had to study everything again if I decide to move to Korea xD
I'm 22 by October 2021. I'm tunisian (arabic is my native language) and I majored in English and this is my 3rd year but I want to work and live in another country. I feel lost and I don't know what to do. Is there any chance for me to teach arabic in korea or any other country ? Any advice please ??
I'm a truck driver in america was wondering how much they make in south Korea and it looks pretty good from what I'm seeing.
What type of visa should you get if you are a foreign kpop idol or trainie?
Following too because Im going to send in my audition reel, but I'm guessing kpop idol/trainee is e6 for entertainer
@@KRoromon thanks and which entertainment 😊 I might do jyo or big hit or yg or cube or pys
@@yogidabear1005 lol I'm just sending in to anyone who's open, so sm, jyp, yg, fnc, cube
I'll even go for hk companies lol
Like college application lol whoever takes me I'll go
Im here due to your talk with Danny from DKDKTV🙌🏿.
To teach in the education field but at a university level, do you have any tips or recommendations?
I am working on learning the language, alphabet & looking to get a TESOL cert. Or is it best to look into Dave's ESL Cafe?
I prefer not to teach K-12
This video is great, very informative. Would you also happen to have any good info for people who want to study abroad in South Korea?
Me too
I want to go into the tech industry within south korea. My goal is to teach English for a bit and learn as much korean as possible and than go into the tech industry (cyber security) but knowing me if I enjoy teaching English to children than I'll stick with that. (I'm good with kids)
As far as I know, you cannot really teach english there if english is not your native language, even if you're really good at it. You have to have a passport from an english speaking country. So this is mostly just for native english speakers who wanna go and teach english in korea, but people from europe? The chance is pretty small, I think.
Thank you for this! It's very informative haha. I was curious if I could get any kind of nursing job in South Korea?
also Esthetician / Medical Esthetician jobs ?
Hey, I’m sorry I’m so late to this video but recently I’ve been looking into modelling in South Korea and was wondering if you could maybe talk about that because I’m struggling to find information on the highest paying agencies and the overall best agencies to go to. Thank you!
Hi Michael , what about jobs in the civil Engineer field? Trust me I'm Engineer 🧐😎
Bro that’s how you know he a real one he put “golden boy” in here
The real G’s know Golden Boy
Great viD, it's extremely helpful, but what about Pharmacy Tech? Just curious
That “teakwondo” got me...... that’s how it’s spelled on my first Dan certificate in taekwondo -__-
I really want to go to Korea and live and work there I love it there and I am thinking of getting one of the jobs in this video!! However I also want to pursue a career in film and now I don’t know what I should do or want to do. My parents are encouraging me to the film side but i dont know. Any advice?
