Dear readers,
could somebody help Melissa out?
Dear Korean,
My husband is considering a job in S. Korea. I was wondering if you could refer me to any websites that would help our family gain information and help make the transition and whole experience better. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!
Melissa
Trouble is, the Korean has no idea what kind of information is out there about this because, well, the Korean never needs it!
Please leave your input in the comment section. Thank you all.
