I actually went there twice. The first time was the traditional junior year abroad thing at Yonsei University in Seoul, then I went back after graduation for another year, doing part-time postgraduate courses and part-time teaching at private academies. I lived in Seoul both times, but I traveled all over the place (and to Japan, too). Korea's a wonderful country and is compact enough that you can see a large chunk of it in a reasonable amount of time.

Getting to see Japan would be excellent--I just want to take a little time to travel before I seriously settle anywhere, and teaching abroad lets me soak up all the new cultures I can while giving something back, too, so everyone's happy, right?

As for travel to Japan, I took the ferry from Busan to Shimonoseki, then traveled by train (and sometimes hitchhiking, though I *really* don't recommend that!) to Hiroshima, Osaka, Kyoto, and points along the way. It was pretty economical and loads of fun.
