How gullible can you be? There's no $50,000 jobs in Australia. HAHAHAHA! "HUNG DUCK SUNG: I was guaranteed to get paid over $75,000 a year. I don't know how much I'm getting paid now exactly, but I get paid $16 an hour after tax." This is way more than most English teachers get paid in Korea. "KIM YU SANG: I want to be a good father for my kids, take them out, take them to the beach and have a good time, but I can't provide anything like that for them now." I'm sure the president of the welder's union had a son that went to Korea to teach English, ending with a similar outcome to this Korean chap. :P “MIN KUK KIM, MIGRANT WORKER: I was guaranteed a minimum of $54,500 to a maximum of $100,000.”
