I am one of those trying to recruit for my academy, I am trying to recruit my replacement. It is quite tough to recruit. I do find that many people have unrealistic expectations out there. The salaries haven't moved dramatically (although they have gone up) but some guys out there are expectiing too much. They have heard of the pot of gold in Korea but don't really know the situation. 2.4 M in Seoul is ok for a newbie, but outside I would think 2.2 or 2.3 is more likely.
