ATTITUDE TO FOREIGNERS WORKING IN DOBONG-GU

There are not much jobs that foreigners can have or at least I didn't have much chance to see foriegners working in Dobong-gu.
So far, I only have seen them working in schools or private academy as a "native" english teacher.
I guess the main reason why is because Dobong-gu is not quite a tourist attraction, or a place where many people form outside visits in S.Korea either.
Therefore, there are not mch chance to see foreign workers and somtimes people give them not a usual look. They might be staring at you if you don't look like Asian or speak different language. But that doesn't mean they are going to be mean or something. People here are usually nice, so except from getting a weird look, it's gonna be fine.
