Starcraft is a part of why I want to move. I want to see a few lives games. But I'm just tired of living in my hometown and from what people have been saying.. Korea seems like a great country to experience. I wan to live in Seoul and I'll try to become a waiter before I head over to Korea. I will also find a day job somewhere as well. Part time maybe.

I don't know Korean, but a good way to learn is to work in a restaurant where I will have to speak it all the time. Practice, practice, practice. That is key. If I hang out with a bunch of English speakers, that will slow me down.

I won't live there forever. Probably 2-3 years max. Unless something happens to change that but I don't foresee anything at the moment.

So wait? I'm bad? =(

if you have trouble finding a job you could be a private English tutor. you might be able to get a job at an English hagwon as well, but usually you would need a college degree.

I lack a degree. I've taken some college courses but I couldn't figure out what to do with my life so I stopped taking classes to work 2 jobs and save up cash until I could.

Korean is easy to learn.

There are areas where a non-korean can work at outback (specifically to service non-korean speaking customers).

Moving to another country when you work at a restaurant as a slave is going to be very hard and you're going to have to manage finances very well.

Study Korean very hard and diligently so that you can use language skills to get a much better job in Korea (whatever that may be).

Good luck.

Thanks for the advice Rekrul. I realize that staying in a restaurant type business will force me to still work my ass off everyday but it's not something I haven't done for the past 2 years anyways.
