Those who live or who have lived here will tell you that it is a great place for foreign teachers. The sense of community among the foreign teachers is really strong, there is always something to do and the range of activities is quite remarkable.
It should be noted that Ulsan is the birth place of the foreigner initiated moped "gang" called "Hell's Ajuma's"... need I say more... those of you who have not been to Korea or do not know Korean, an "ajuma" is a middle aged or married woman". There is a fun group to hang out with no matter what part of Ulsan you live.
