Perhaps first look into your Visa officer who holds up visas and takes bribes to grant the visas through a local party, unless which its rejected without a proper cause. Only a heads up for the embassy higher-ups

In Korea for overseas workers they extract their pound of flesh for every dollar. They also can be contemptuous of dark skinned but us Aryan peoples who contemptuously refer to our fellow citizens asblack. If we all are willing to work hard in our own country as we have to do in Korea there would be no requirement for us to work as wage slaves in Korea
