💼 Jobs
What visa do foreigners need to work in Korea?
In most cases you need an E-7 (Specific Activities) visa. Depending on your job and qualifications, work visas range from E-1 to E-7, and international students can change from a D-2 visa to an E-7. We can help you with visa questions for your specific situation.
Do you help with resumes and cover letters?
Yes! We support the entire job-hunting process: writing Korean-style resumes and self-introduction letters, and preparing for interviews. We share document-writing tips and interview know-how tailored to Korean corporate culture.
🏠 Housing Contracts
What is the difference between jeonse and monthly rent?
Jeonse is a uniquely Korean rental system: you pay a large deposit and live with no monthly rent. Monthly rent (wolse) means paying a deposit plus rent every month. For foreigners, monthly rent or semi-jeonse is more common. We accompany you through the entire contract process with interpretation and advice.
Can foreigners sign a housing contract in Korea?
Yes. You will need an Alien Registration Card and your passport, and some landlords are hesitant about renting to foreigners. We interpret and negotiate between you, the real estate agent, and the landlord, and we review the contract together with you.
🎓 School Life
Do you help with school administrative procedures?
Yes! We help with admission paperwork, course registration, scholarship applications, dormitory applications, and other administrative tasks across school life. This is especially helpful for international students who are not yet comfortable with Korean.
🚀 Starting a Business
Can foreigners start a business in Korea?
Yes! With a D-8 (Corporate Investment) visa you can establish a corporation, and the visa is available with an investment of 100 million KRW or more. We provide consulting for the entire startup process, from incorporation and business registration to visa changes.
