Details
This school is located in Gumi a great little town that gives foreign teachers an opportunity for full cultural immersion. Gumi is located in the western part of Korea's North Gyeongsang Province, 277.5 km. south of Seoul and 167 km. north of Busan. The city has a population of 340,000 and has the biggest inland industrial complex in Korea (2.38 sq. km.) and covers an area of 617.28 sq. km., covering 3.2% of North Gyeongsang Province (slightly larger than Seoul). As such, Gumi serves as a hub of local development and transportation. Korea's main transportation arteries between Seoul and Busan, the Gyeongbu Railroad line and Gyeongbu Expressway, cross the city, allowing for the smooth flowing of goods and people. Also, the Nakdong River flows north to south through Gumi and has enhanced growth by supplying sufficient water for both agriculture and industry.
There are a number of great cultural areas for foreign teachers to check out, the Geumo-san Provincial Park is a great place to start where you can see a 5.5 meter Bodhisattva statue sculptured into a rock wall. This is just one of many amazing things you can see and experience here. It is also very close to Andong and incredible cultural center.
