Scott Kim will be at the airport on August 27th to meet you all and ensure that everyone has arrived safely.

There is a designated spot for all teachers to meet. A prominent sign will indicate this spot. If you cannot find it, please follow these instructions:

*** Meeting Point- The Meeting Point is on the first floor of the domestic terminal of the Gimhae Airport – if you are arriving on an international flight (i.e. from Tokyo or Beijing), you will need to go to the domestic terminal it is a short walk (3-5 minutes) and there are baggage carts available to move your luggage. At the center of the terminal there are long benches (chairs) in front of the information desk. The Gimhae airport is a pretty small airport, so you can’t miss the meeting point.

*** Scott’s Cell Phone - Scott Kim will be at the airport to meet you. Please call his cell phone number, 017-252-4595 if you have any problems. Also, Ms. Mallay Oh, the supervisor at the Ulsan MOE, will be at the airport. If you are unable to get a hold of Scott, her cell phone number is 011-592-3415.

***Arrival Procedure - You will meet Ms. Mallay Oh, the supervisor of the Ulsan MOE, at the Meeting Point – you must check in with Ms. Mallay Oh. She will call your co-teachers to prepare them to pick you up when you arrive in Ulsan via the airport bus. The tickets for the bus will be purchased by Ms. Mallay Oh. She will instruct you where to catch the bus. Your co-teachers will be waiting for you in Ulsan to pick you up and take you to either your school or your accommodations, depending on what time you arrive. Those of you arriving in Pusan at 8.45pm on the NW will likely all be on the same bus to Ulsan!! :) And your co-teachers will be taking you to your new accommodations when you arrive in Ulsan.
