Huong's Daily Life - How I Came to Korea

Hello! This is Huong.😊 Today, I will show you a YouTube rural vlog taken by a Vietnamese person. I'd like to introduce it to you! First, let me introduce you to the cherry tomato project in Korea. This job involves cutting cherry tomato shoots. Because it is a very light task, it is suitable for women and the elderly . Here, you simply need to pick out and cut the tomato stems . However, tomato stems have a lot of small hairs , so a lot of dust is generated during work. So, you should wear a mask and a hat to prevent dust from getting into your eyes or nose ! ✅ Working hours: 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM ✅ Lunch time: 1 hour provided ✅ Dormitory: Those who come from far away can stay in the dormitory . If you're interested, please contact us! 😊 Next, I will introduce the process of planting garlic. This is a job that anyone, regardless of age or gender, can do. ✅ First, start by gently leveling the ground . You can do it by hand, or as shown in the video, you can use a machine to level the soil . ✅ Next, use a rake to level the surface of the furrow. If there are any weeds or stones, please remove them . ✅ The next step is to spread compost (manure) on the soil . This process helps the garlic grow healthily and quickly. ✅ Afterwards , lay the vinyl on the ground and cover it with soil using a shovel to secure it . This will prevent the plastic from blowing away in the wind. ✅ Lastly, plant the garlic seeds . Usually, the plastic has holes pre-drilled in it, so you just need to plant the seeds one by one in each hole! This is how garlic planting is done. It's not difficult, and anyone can do it if they learn slowly! 😊 Finally, let me introduce you to the ginseng harvesting process ! Ginseng is mainly harvested during the cooler season , and the work is done using a combination of machines and hand labor . ✅ First, use a machine to turn over the soil on the surface of the field , Next, the soil is lightly scraped away with a rake and the ginseng is harvested by hand . ✅ All you have to do is put the harvested ginseng in a bag or sack . The ginseng root may break while working, so the point is to handle it gently and not too hard 😊 ✅ After harvesting, there is also a process of sorting the ginseng according to its size and shape . This job is not too difficult, so anyone, whether male or female, can do it! At JOBPLOY, agricultural work is conducted continuously from March to December every year . If you live in Korea, you can apply for jobs no matter where you are! ✅ Generally, working hours are from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM . ✅ 1 hour lunch break is provided . ✅ The daily wage ranges from 90,000 to 120,000 won depending on the job description and gender . ✅ Dormitory rooms are also provided in double occupancy (for residents of remote areas).

I'll help you get a good job 😊💼🌱 ✨Nếu bạn có bất kỳ câu hỏi nào khác dành cho Hương, Vui lòng liên hệ với Jobploy Vietnam trên Facebook !

Hello! This is Huong.😊 Today, I'd like to introduce agricultural jobs ! The timing of field work varies depending on the season, and from March to May is the time to plow the field, apply fertilizer, and plant seeds. As the temperature rises, the full-scale farming begins. The farming season begins and crops grow from June to August , so it is important to water, remove weeds, and control pests and diseases. However, from September to November is the harvest season. Grains and vegetables are harvested and the fields are prepared for the next farming season. December to February is a difficult time for crops to grow, so it is the time to apply fertilizer and prepare for the next farming season. Depending on the time of year, the work process may also vary. The first step in starting field work is to prepare the soil . To grow good crops, you must first till the soil well and fertilize it. It's important to create a rich soil. In late winter and early spring, turn the soil deeply to loosen it. This process helps to aerate the soil and eliminates pests and weed seeds in the ground. The second step is sowing seeds and planting seedlings. After deciding which crops to grow, this is the stage where you sow seeds or plant seedlings. Depending on the size and characteristics of the seeds, they should be planted at an appropriate depth and spacing, and seedlings should be planted carefully to avoid damaging the roots. Next comes maintenance . Water the plants, remove weeds, and add fertilizer as needed to keep them healthy. Plants need to be supplied with the appropriate amount of water needed for growth, and each crop requires different amounts and water cycles, so care must be taken. And weeds can interfere with crop growth, so they should be removed regularly. Plants, like people, require nutrients. Appropriate nutrition must be provided according to the growth stage, and organic or chemical fertilizers must be used appropriately. Finally, there's harvesting and storage . Depending on the crop, harvesting can be done by hand or by machine. Vegetables must be harvested carefully, and grains require drying and storage. To maintain freshness, harvested crops must be stored in an appropriate location. From March to December, various types of farm work are available depending on the season, and can be done by men, women, and older people. Due to the variety of work, you can earn around 90,000 to 120,000 won per day, and you will be paid on the same day based on the work done. Working hours are usually 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM. There is a lunch break, but meals are not provided. Dormitories are available, with double occupancy. The locations are diverse, including Gangwon-do, Daejeon, Yeongju, Eumseong, Daejeon, Boryeong, Chuncheon, Seongju, and Chungju, and anyone residing in Korea can work there.

Hello! This is Huong.😊 Today, I'd like to talk about ' choosing a career' .^^ Indeed! What kind of job would be good for working in Korea? Understanding Korean society well can help us more effectively find opportunities that are right for us! For example, Korea is currently experiencing an aging society at a very rapid pace. The rapid increase in the elderly population is affecting various aspects of Korean society. As the influx of foreigners continues to increase, the multicultural society is accelerating. Amidst these changes, career fields such as SNS global marketer, nursing assistant, caregiver, and hospital coordinator are bound to receive active attention! I'm actually a nursing assistant, so I'm going to talk about this! ✅ What is a nursing assistant? While nurses mainly work in large hospitals, nursing assistants assist nurses in small hospitals such as clinics. Helps the hospital run smoothly through patient care, medical support, and administrative tasks. ✅ Obtain a nursing assistant license To obtain a license, you must complete at least 740 hours of theoretical education and at least 780 hours of practical education at a nursing school in each region. It took me about a year! Since this is a job that requires understanding medical terminology and communicating effectively, Korean language skills are obviously essential, right?! 😉 I was able to learn not only medical knowledge but also counseling skills and customer service. Despite working hard in practice There were some difficult parts because each hospital had a different method. If you have any difficulties, be sure to ask for help from people around you. It's better to do things accurately and calmly rather than rushing. It is very important to learn step by step and build your skills! I have always been a meticulous and thorough person. I enjoyed dealing with people and found it rewarding to help others! There are many difficult aspects, but I also thought it was a good fit for my aptitude. I chose this job because I thought it would be a necessary and important job even in Korea's current situation. As I mentioned earlier, the influx of foreigners into Korea is increasing. The role of healthcare professionals with foreign language skills is becoming increasingly important. If you have a nursing assistant license, you will not have much difficulty finding a job. You will be even more competitive if you have communication skills, especially for multicultural patients! I got a job at a hospital through Jobploy and am still working there! Thanks to that connection, I was able to post every Wednesday! Haha If you are also wondering which job to choose, Think about areas where you can best utilize your strengths! When choosing a job in Korea as a foreigner, think about the field you are good at and think it will be the most advantageous. There are fields where you can effectively utilize your foreign language skills along with global experience! Translation and interpretation specialists, foreign language instructors, and cultural instructors are all fields in which foreigners can demonstrate their great strengths! So, let's talk about how to choose a career! I hope many foreigners make wise choices and find fulfilling work! 💪 See you next time~ 👋 ✨If you have any further questions for Huong, Please contact Jobploy Vietnam on Facebook !

Hello! This is Huong.😉 Did you have a good Lunar New Year holiday? I also spent the holiday with my family in Vietnam for the first time in a while. As the new year of 2025 approaches, many of you are preparing for a new beginning, right? So today! For foreigners who want to find a job in Korea! I'd like to share with you some practical job search success tips that I've personally experienced and felt! As a foreigner, it wasn't easy for me to find a job in Korea at first...ㅠㅠ However, if you understand the Korean market and leverage your strengths as a foreigner, you can seize great opportunities! Let's talk about them one by one from now on! 😎 1️⃣ Korean language skills TOPIK preparation The most important thing to get a job in Korea is, of course, Korean language skills! The Test of Proficiency in Korean (TOPIK) is an official way to prove your Korean language skills. Many companies require TOPIK scores or a certain level of Korean language proficiency. In particular, if you obtain TOPIK level 3 or higher, it is advantageous for employment! The TOPIK test is held every year, and is open to both Korean residents and overseas residents alike! You can check the test schedule on the official TOPIK website . There are manyfree online lectures, so study hard! Practice Korean conversation In addition to your TOPIK test scores, your ability to speak fluently in real life is also very important! The Korean you learned may feel awkward when you have an actual conversation. I also vividly remember how difficult it was for me to talk to Koreans for the first time… 😣 I definitely learned a lot of words, but when I tried to use them, I couldn't spit them out well...ㅠ So I practiced speaking directly through language exchange meetings and Korean conversation classes! You helped me communicate better, so I felt less nervous and was able to speak more comfortably. I recommend these methods as they have helped me a lot! 2️⃣ Prepare your resume and self-introduction Writing a Korean-style resume Korean resumes are usually in table format ! There are usually some key items that need to be written down. Usually ✅ Personal information – name, date of birth, contact information, address, email, etc. ✅ Educational background – from high school to university (graduate school), including duration and major ✅ Career history – company name, length of employment, responsibilities, major achievements, etc. ✅ Certifications and Licenses – Certifications obtained and issuing agencies ✅ Language Proficiency – Official language test scores (TOEIC, TOPIK, etc.) ✅ Computer and other technologies – available software, programming languages, etc. ✅ Awards and external activities – competitions, overseas training, club activities, etc. ✅ Military service (male) – military service status, branch of service, and rank ✅ Other details – desired salary, possible start date, etc. I need to write down these things Please write down the key points in the form, excluding unnecessary information! Even if your Korean skills are lacking, it's best to use a translator to write in Korean as much as possible and submit it! Writing a self-introduction In Korea, when you submit your resume, you are asked to submit a 'self-introduction'! In the self-introduction ✅ Growth Process & Values ​​- My personality, tendencies, and events that influenced my childhood, etc. ✅ Strengths and weaknesses and efforts to improve - Experience in emphasizing my strengths and overcoming my weaknesses ✅ Motivation for application - What made you interested in the position at the company, etc. ✅ Job-related experience and competencies - Emphasize relevant part-time work experience and achievements ✅ Aspirations and goals for joining the company - how you will contribute to the company and long-term growth plans, etc. It's very important to be specific and emphasize that you are the right fit for the company! I usually know my strengths and weaknesses very well, so it wasn't difficult to write it haha There is also a post on Jobploy Story abouthow to write a resume that will increase your chances of passing, so I think it would be good to refer to it! 3️⃣ Use job platforms and job fairs Utilizing job platforms Representative Korean job search sites include [Job Korea] and [Saramin]. There are a lot of different job openings posted on the website. However, it was a bit of a hassle because I had to check further whether hiring foreigners was possible. So, if you go through a job platform exclusively for foreigners like Jobploy, It's convenient to find a company in the right region and job category and apply for a job! Unlike general job platforms, you can check job information in your native language. Since it is a site specializing in hiring foreigners, it has the advantage of being able to easily see job postings from companies hiring foreigners. You can also find information about training programs for employment and life in Korea. This is an excellent platform for foreigners seeking employment in Korea! 👍 Participate in a job fair In Korea, various job fairs and recruitment information sessions are held every year. There are companies actively hiring foreigners participating! By participating in this, you can communicate directly with company officials and obtain practical information. You will also have the opportunity to experience writing resumes and conducting interviews. I've also participated in several job fairs. It was nice to be able to participate with other foreigners. After experiencing what it's like to actually be interviewed, I felt a little less nervous during the actual interview. Participating in these events before you begin your full-fledged job search can be a huge help! 4️⃣ Visa and Legal Requirements Preparing for a work visa To legally work in Korea, you must obtain a work visa! The main employment visas are summarized inthe Employment Visa Guide . You should check the eligibility requirements for each visa in advance and thoroughly prepare the necessary documents. You can also receive visa-related consultations through Jobploy'sonline visa consultation service! Understanding employment contracts and labor laws When signing an employment contract, you must carefully review the contract before signing it! Korea's labor laws are well-established to protect workers. It's also incredibly important to clearly understand your working conditions and protect your rights! I recommend that you look into it carefully before getting a job. 5️⃣ Interview Preparation The Importance of Interviews Interviews are a very important part of the hiring process! Based on the information written in your resume or self-introduction, you can express your experiences and capabilities in various ways through words and facial expressions! In particular, as a foreigner, it is good to show that you have a good understanding of Korean culture and can adapt to it. Here's a tip I found that helped me pass: smiling a lot is a huge plus! 😊 Another very important part is to conduct preliminary research on the company you are applying to (understanding the company's main business, goals, and job role, etc.) If you prepare yourself to answer company-related questions without hesitation, it's only a matter of time before you pass, right? Here! Based on my experience, I've written some useful job-hunting tips for those looking to find a job in Korea! We hope this information will help you expand your employment opportunities in Korea and start a successful career!😊 I'll be back with more useful information. Bye bye~ 🤗 ✨If you have any further questions for Huong, Please contact Jobploy Vietnam on Facebook !

Hello! This is Huong. 😎 Today, I would like to introduce Korean Lunar New Year culture, traditions, and its meaning. Have you ever celebrated Seollal in Korea? As soon as I arrived in Korea in January, I was able to experience the Korean Lunar New Year firsthand. 😊 Seollal is one of the most important holidays in Korea, celebrating the new year on the first day of the lunar calendar . This day has a traditional meaning of family and friends gathering together to honor their ancestors and pray for good fortune in the new year . Seollal is more than just a holiday; it is a time to reflect on the importance of family and make a new beginning. You can experience the affection felt in warm tradition! [Sebae]🙇‍♀️🙇‍♂️ One of the representative traditions of Seollal is bowing . Sebae is a ceremony in which younger people offer New Year's greetings to their elders, and the elders offer words of wisdom and wish them good fortune in the new year. After the New Year's bow, there is also a custom of exchanging New Year's money🧧 . This goes beyond simply giving pocket money; it carries a symbolic meaning of expressing love and respect between family members. 🤗 (I want to receive it too… 😋) [Table of Contents]🍚 Performing ancestral rites to honor one's ancestors is also one of the important traditions of Seollal. It is a ritual in which food and drinks are offered to ancestors with sincerity and a wish is made for the peace of their souls. A variety of traditional foods are neatly arranged, and each food has its own unique meaning and symbolism. After the ancestral rites, the whole family shares the food that was served, reflects on the kindness of their ancestors, and spends a harmonious time together. A precious tradition that expresses family ties and deep respect for ancestors. This will help strengthen the bond between family members! When I first saw the table of contents, I was very surprised. I was truly amazed at the cultural depth of each and every dish on the table! [Tteokguk] 🍲 You can't miss out on tteokguk, a traditional Korean food for the Lunar New Year! It is a soup dish made with thinly sliced ​​rice cakes, and it has the symbolic meaning of growing a year older when eaten. In addition to tteokguk, there are many other foods that are served on the Seollal table, such as jeon, japchae, and sikhye. All of this contains the wish for abundance and blessings. [Traditional Games]🪁 The joy of Seollal also shines through traditional games played with family! Among them, Yut Nori is a representative game ! It is a game in which the board is moved according to the result of throwing four Yut sticks. It is a game where families cooperate and sometimes compete, and have a laughter-filled time. In addition to these, there are many traditional games such as kite flying, top spinning, and jegichagi . These days, people don't really play these games much during the Lunar New Year holidays, haha. I thought it would be fun, so I wanted to try it, but I had a regret. I was able to experience these things at 'Korean Folk Village' ! If you are in Korea during the Lunar New Year and cannot be with your family, How about visiting Korean Folk Village , experiencing traditional Korean games, and taking some commemorative photos? It will be an unforgettable memory haha So far, we have introduced Korean Lunar New Year traditions! I hope you'll experience this beautiful Korean culture firsthand and make the start of the year even more meaningful. 🥰 Happy New Year everyone! 💖 Have a happy Lunar New Year holiday and see you in the next post~ 🎉🎊 ✨If you have any further questions for Huong, Please contact Jobploy Vietnam on Facebook !
