I am told the taxis are very expensive as opposed to public transportation. I don't really have a measuring stick or a baseline to measure that from, but that was information from my co-teacher. I usually take a bus to and from school which is 1800 won each way and about a 20 minute ride if that helps you gauge at all. I would ask your co teachers for help with this as they are probably more familiar with your surroundings and how to get around.
