Hi, I am a current federal employee in the US and recently applied to a position in Seoul. I have a pretty good chance of getting the job. I am single and have a young child. I want the position because I think it would be a unique opportunity for my little one, and once I take this assignment I can then travel to other overseas locations after 3 yrs. I am a military brat and would love for my little one to see the world as I did growing up. My only concern is, would Korea be a decent place for a single mom with a 10 yr old. I am a bit worried about safety and was wondering about social activities for myself and child. Any advice would be great as if I am offered the position they will want an answer asap. Thanks so very much....

Saftey really is not a concern over here, they let there 7 year old children ride the bus all around Seoul by themselves....

Plenty of stuff to do, when you say government job do you mean on post?

I've looked on USjobs and everywhere for a federal job over there, Congrats on that! Not sure about the safety but these guys on this forum seem to know what they're talking about.. I'm not over there yet.

I have looked this up on the travel to korea site, seems there's plenty to see!
