Modeling in Korea

Employment

Hi! Saw a few posts talking about what it’s like to go stay in Korea to model - in terms of what I should know / look out for / red flags , etc.

I’m looking for anyone who has gone on stay in Seoul , and what their experience was like? The Korean agency I would be signing to is pretty small so it’s been hard to find a lot of information specifically on them as well.

I was a bit surprised to see how much it’s all going to cost in terms of living expenses , and since I’m so new, they want me to develop more in their market before they can offer me a guarantee. Which makes sense but also is pretty scary to think there’s a possibility I go , make no money , and suddenly I’m in debt.

Anyways would just love some advice and if anyone wants to dm instead I could probably share some more details if that’s helpful.

Thanks!
