I'm in Seoul right now (long layover). I've never been here before. There's often
some truth to what you read here on Pprune, but most of the stuff - especially the negative stuff - needs to be taken with a grain of salt. I was walking around the airport for a couple of hours yesterday, and saw a
lot of expat captains wearing KAL uniforms. The training is probably a cast-iron b*t*h, and the selection and testing process may be unfairly arbitrary, but a lot of folks are making it through and have jobs. It's probably worth a try.
