I have a question... in order for our salary to be comparable to the 2.0 million back in 2004, how much should it have risen with inflation by 2019. Around 4.0 Million?
Spoken like a true apologist. Hakwons already have shortages. Supply and demand mean wages should be rising. Some have while some are staying stubbornly low. This will catch up with EPIK too though as of now there are enough applying, but not flooded like before. So, supply and demand dictate wages should rise. As said in other forums, other countries are stepping up their game. But cucks who accept less are hard to do anything about I guess.

So, supply and demand dictate wages should rise. As said in other forums, other countries are stepping up their game. But cucks who accept less are hard to do anything about I guess. so show me the data on hagwon shortages. if wages "should be rising" then they would be rising. if they can stay "stubbornly" low then they shouldn't be rising. why would wages rise if they don't have to? when they have to rise, they will. maybe that time is coming, maybe it's not. it clearly hasn't come yet.and the market being "flooded" or not means nothing. there just needs to be sufficient supply. as long as supply is sufficient, wages won't magically rise. as i said, i'm not here for the long haul, but if you've been here a while and haven't improved your own situation, that's on you. lots of other posters are clearly doing fine by starting businesses, teaching privates, etc. etc. etc.
it's got nothing to do with 2019 wages not allowing a newbie to save for those goals anymore.

Outside of people from the US with very high student loan repayments, I can't see how people are getting through their money so quickly here.
