New testimonial from Aanchal, teacher in a city near Seoul:
"KocaLink’s incredible dedication to ESL teachers is what allowed me to find an amazing placement in Korea so easily. Their recruiters worked with me day and night to ensure I felt comfortable before interviews and had a successful transition to Korea. As they only work with accredited and trustworthy schools, I felt confident about signing my contract and the entire visa process. They answered my one million questions and worked seamlessly with myself and my school to everyone’s satisfaction. I would not have been able to be where I am today if it were not for KocaLink’s invaluable staff and services!"

Ask a Half-Korean!: Korea's 'Real' New Year's Day!-'Seollal(Sul-Nal, Sol-Nal)'
I never get the date for Seollal correctly or any of the other Korean holidays for that matter.I was wondering, when women do the small Jeol do they also put their right hand above their left hand on lower abdomen while standing up straight. Or do they have their hands by their sides?Happy New Year!
