midnight run vs resignation
For a multitude of reasons, I am leaving my hagwon after only a few weeks. There have been breaches of contract and the administration is highly abusive, and I just do not care to endure it longer. I am planning to go to Japan for a week, then return to Korea for a month as a tourist to enjoy my time before going home. I don’t yet have my ARC, so as far as I can understand, this would work fine and be fairly simple (correct me if I'm wrong).
My question is: should I midnight run and leave without telling them or inform them 24-48hrs prior? I don't want to make things more difficult for the other foreign teachers struggling through working there because they're all so nice.
EDIT: Does anyone have any information about whether it would indeed be possible to leave to Japan and return to Korea as a tourist? I have not had my immigration appointment yet to apply for my ARC.
