The first time I visited Korea in 2007, I was not familiar with the culture or what Korea had to offer. When I was provided with the opportunity to teach in Korea, I figured that it would give me a chance to learn more about this East Asian country that always seemed to lag behind Japan and Hong Kong in my mind.  How a year can make such a difference...After being in Korea for a year, I came away with nothing but admiration for the culture and the people.  Now, I keep wanting to go back again and again...
