Yeah, ok. But native speakers will have it easier if they want to teach the language they've grown up using. It takes maaany years to master a second language. If you're fighting for a job as a Korean teacher, a Korean-speaking person will have a better chance at getting it, in 90% of the cases.


everything is relative and contradictory ~
