Part 36: Viewers shocked by shameless acts of unqualified foreign instructors.
On January 31, 2005, My Daily published a second article about the episode of the MBC investigative current affairs program 'Sisa Magazine 2580' titled "Korea is a paradise" which was broadcast on the 30th. (Its first article is here). It purports to describe the netizen response, but is more an editorial than a news article. Case in point: is the title meant to be descriptive or prescriptive?
Viewers shocked by shameless acts of unqualified foreign instructors.It must have been frightening to realize that "Korea has been made into a lawless world by unqualified foreign instructors" who "don't hesitate to carry out shameless acts." Obviously there has been little "improvement" in the "widespread belief in the supremacy of English" since 2005.
Are you so enamoured with foreigners for the single reason that they speak English that you'll give them your body and money?" "The supremacy of English has become so widespread that Korea has been made into a lawless world by unqualified foreign instructors." "Unqualified foreign instructors see Korea as an easy mark and are taking over - what is the government doing?"
"In two years I slept with 20 Korean women." This was said in a shocking phone interview with a foreign instructor on the MBC investigative current affairs program "Sisa Magazine 2580 - Korea is a paradise," which was broadcast on the 30th. After the broadcast, netizens and viewers poured out responses which contained various emotions such as shock, astonishment, and feelings of shame.
Once again, the stir over the site which denigrated Korean women has delivered another shock. The broadcast showed a glimpse of the ills of our society caused by the supremacy of English and by unqualified foreign instructors who carry out shameless acts.
For the sole reason that they come from countries that speak English, people with absolutely no qualifications as educators like drug addicts, degree fakers, and people who don't even know how to spell receive special treatment like being provided a house and high tuition fees, and the phenomenon of them going from hagwon instructors to home tutors is causing many problems.
The problem of unreserved, unqualified foreign instructors includes of course fraudulent English instruction, considering housewives they teach English to as sex partners and even shameless conduct which promotes tempting women over teaching English, and we are reminded once again that the this is a serious social problem that now should not be neglected any further.
These fraudulent unqualified foreign instructors increase the large amount of money they earn, don't hesitate to carry out shameless acts, and consider Korea to be a 'paradise' and 'easy mark.' This is because authorities who carelessly supervise them, the 'brokers' who provide even faked degrees and the hagwons who know this but overlook it act as the biggest supporters of unqualified instructors.
However, above all else, the cause allowing the spread of unqualified foreign instructors in this land can be the mistaken belief in the supremacy of English in which just speaking English well can be treated [well] by our society. If awareness of the widespread belief in the supremacy of English is not improved, and if the English education system is not properly maintained, unqualified foreign instructors who think of Korea as an easy mark will not disappear from this land.
