This is posted on a response to someone on the Q&A board concerning taxes in Korea. However, on your website, you have this posted:
26,000,000 won, out of which 780,000 won will be deducted as taxes.
This is a large selling point for working there, as the lower taxes would certainly allow me to save more money and live more comfortably, yet in the table above, someone making 26,000,000 will end up paying 20%. What numbers am I to believe?
