E-2 Visa's Dropping in South Korea?
Recent articles have suggested that AI is the reason fewer foreign teachers are applying for E-2 visas, but I think the real story is much more complicated. In this video, I break down the major factors contributing to the decline in E-2 visa applications and why South Korea is becoming less attractive to many foreign teachers. I discuss topics such as: South Korea is no longer the "hidden gem" it once was The country's record-low birth rate and shrinking student population The Korean won has lost value against major foreign currencies Better-paying opportunities in other countries The leverage employers have over teachers through the E-2 visa system Concerns about hagwon working conditions and work-life balance As someone who has lived and worked in South Korea, I share my thoughts on the current state of English teaching and on whether these trends are likely to continue. What do you think is the biggest reason E-2 visa applications are declining? Let me know in the comments below.
