Korean Horizons is the leading accredited recruitment company for public schools in several provinces & metropolitan cities throughout South Korea. We are separate from EPIK, but we have the same public schools & they come with the same contracts, salary, benefits, etc, etc.
With EPIK, even if you go with the biggest most reputable recruitment company, you would never know the exact location, nor the name of the school before you arrive. We can provide that information to you as we work direct with the provincial & metro educational offices & not EPIK.
We are owned & operated by UK nationals, we have been in this business since 2004. We are a registered company in South Korea.
We can communicate with you easily & understand your needs - whether this is your first time or if you have had experiences here before.
With a Korean company, your expressions will be lost in translation. Never will you be misunderstood by us.
We will do our upmost to assist you before you come & throughout your entire employment contract here in South Korea.
Our creditability is untarnished & speaks for itself.
Korean Horizons is one of only 2 recruitment companies that have a direct contract with the Incheon Office of Education. Amongst these, we are the leading provider for professional teachers & the most trusted recruitment company by the education officials at this education office.

Incheon is the 3rd largest (after Seoul & Busan) city in South Korea. It has a population of 2.6m people. It is where the international airport is located, although many think it's Seoul!
