As a foreigner living in Seoul, working for US startups, and eyeing creating a US-styled startup in Seoul in the future, what are the sacrifices you have in mind?

Do you know of anyone who has created a US style startup in Seoul? Only two people I can think of are Matthew Shampine and Jason Boutte. Jason Boutte is literally the only foreigner I know who pulled it off, I've lived in Seoul doing startup stuff for 5 years till recently.

Nope, I didn't search either. I just want to do it. (Hi John)

Ha, I figured it was you. Hi Antoine! Feel free to look up Jason and tell him John sent you if you want, he's a cool dude and I'm sure responsive.
