Hi! I guess you're already in Korea now, but let me tell you one thing: The language is easy! I've been learning it for a few months now, and I already know a lot. I dont live in South Korea but I love the music and language. (You can check your Korean with watching K-Dramas and variety shows) I see there are a lot of Indian people in Korea, but where in South Korea do the most Indians live? 'Cause Im planning on moving to Korea, after Im done with my study here, but if I go to a city with no Indians, I'd feel really different. Also, does any of you have kids? If yes, do they like being in Korea? Between all those Koreans? Im really curious about Indians living south korea, I think it'd be amazing if there were a lot of Indians in South Korea, as the culture does look alike. And is there also racism? 'Cause Ive heard a lot of african-american people talking about racism in South Korea. Anyways, I should stop typing now. I hope someone will reply this haha. - Prijanga

Hi all, My husband has also having offer of Samsung and planning to move to Suwan. I want to join the social circle of samsung people in Suwan.I have been in USA and I know its hard to stay in any non native country without good social circle, Lets form a circle of Indians, so that we dont miss our country relatives, , its customs in Korea. Please share your names (alias) anf family composition and what we want in the same thread instead of looking and posting different thread and start a new thread for each one. Lets share our experiences in korea.In this way we will feel connected and dont feel aliented My name : archkrish Reason : Samsung job Stay : Suwan Family My husband ,me and 3.5 years old kid We are coming in December. I am currentl in Chennai but basically I am from Delhi.I shall like join you people. We tried to get information about Samsung job, Korea , culture , education and food weather and got all kind of reviews. We are quite confused whether we are making good decision or not by leaving our jobs and switching to Korea. many says its not a good decision to go Korea, as your kid will feel aliented between other korean kids and other says I shall not get job there ....and many of them say that work culture is hard...its not a good place for a family to stay Please share your views, so that we may get help in taking guided decision and allay our fears
Going to korea, japan is like going to china.. these countries definitely you will face language problme.. if you get indian friends then things will be better.. samsung have many indians their and i have heard suwan is ok ok place.. instead of enquiring about social circle, try to look for schooling for your son who will need to go their sooner.. check it online and enquire about the medium of instruction and the fee. Rest you can manage, education is damn difficult in these countries.
