Dirty Teacher

Bored of life in Vancouver, a sheltered, directionless young man goes to South Korea for a change. He seeks to find out what it's like to live and work in a different culture. There, he meets and befriends a group of similar people - adventurers, dreamers and misfits - who hope to get what they can out of their time in a rapidly growing country with its own set of problems. Teaching in a new suburb, in a largely conservative city, Dan Brown spends a year away learning, educating and getting wasted.
