Depends on who you talk to.
But, criminal background checks from home country, cannaboid screening, AIDS test, more thorough degree check(?), although non-newbies (moving jobs and staying on) have been finding loopholes in the disorganized system, thus skirting the return trip to their home countries.

That is what the old government "wants," yes. The new president however is more "foreigner friendly," and will most likely reverse this, (as well as loosen the proposed/already implemented visa regs) according to my lawyer friend's opinion.
Also, if they were to proceed with the old plan, they'd still need a mac-daddy load of crackers to train those Korean teacher's to teach in their respective fields. A huge task in and of itself. 40-50 year olds don't tend to learn in a hurry.
