More Japanese working in S Korea… “Monthly wages overtake ” due to the weak yen
#1

Konatsu Ishigami (29), who entered Korea on a working holiday visa last August, is working as a waiter at a Japanese restaurant in Gangnam, Seoul. "I've traveled to Korea a few times, but I wanted to live there, so I applied for a working holiday visa," she said. "The yen is weak, so it's hard to pay the 600,000 won (about 64,500 yen) rent unless I work every day."

#. A (28), who has been teaching at a Japanese language school in Korea since last year, started studying Korean when he was a teenager after watching Korean idol videos. A said, "The yen is weak, so if I work in Korea and exchange my money for Japanese yen, I can save more money," and "I can see that there are more and more Japanese people working around me."
