Government Public School Positions in South Korea




Korean Horizons is the leading accredited recruitment company for public schools in several provinces & metropolitan cities throughout South Korea. We are separate from EPIK, but we have the same public schools & they come with the same contracts, salary, benefits, etc, etc.

With EPIK, even if you go with the biggest most reputable recruitment company, you would never know the exact location, nor the name of the school before you arrive. We can provide that information to you as we work direct with the provincial & metro educational offices & not EPIK (SEE BELOW.)

We are owned & operated by UK nationals. We are a registered company in South Korea.

We can communicate with you easily & understand your needs – whether this is your first time or if you have had experiences here before.

With a Korean company, your expressions will be lost in translation. Never will you be misunderstood by us.

We will do our upmost to assist you before you come & throughout your entire employment contract here in South Korea.

Our creditability is untarnished & speaks for itself.

Here are some of the positions we have available:

************************************************************************************************************

In terms of climate, it is one of the warmest places throughout the country.

We have a contract direct with the Gyeongsangnamdo Office of Education in Changwon, so unlike EPIK – we would know the location that you would go to, the name of the school (see below) & be able to get other important information that is crucial to you.
