Welcome back to our Reddit Wine Down series on Teaching in Korea! 🍷

This week, we dive into one of the biggest battles every foreign teacher eventually faces: THE TEMPERATURE WAR.

From "legally mandated" 26°C classroom rules (🤨) to humid Korean summers, mold problems, and why students complaining gets results faster than admin ever will, we break down the realities of staying cool in a classroom that definitely wasn't built for hot weather.

If you've ever taught abroad, dealt with unreasonable workplace rules, or survived a summer in Korea's wet heat… YOU will feel this episode.

🔸 Topics we cover:

• Are hagwons really required to keep classrooms at 26°C?

• Why AC "makes you sick" is a common belief

• The mold struggle (and how we survived it)

• Classroom design that traps heat

• Why kids are your best advocates

• Our own wild teaching-in-Korea temperature stories

Grab a drink and wine down with us! 🍷 New episode every month. Listen to Part 1 & 2 on our website or anywhere you get your podcasts.
