Hi there, I'm not living in Korea, but am posting here because I desperately need some help!
I'm a freelance photojournalist who did work for a firm in Seoul to the tune of 18,000 USD, but the firm has yet to pay my team.
To no avail, I tried calling, emailing, etc.
Now, I'm at the point of trying to find a debt collection agency that I can hire to recover our money.
Does anyone know a debt collection agency that I can hire? If you can pass a name and contact email? Or website. I'd be really grateful!
Signed,
Frustrated and broke
Re: Hiring a Debt Collector
Did you try contacting the local authorities? If you have a signed contract, stipulating clearly the services rendered and the amount of money owed to you, I don't see why the local authorities wouldn't be able to help you out. I might be wrong, but it's worth a try.

I think you may be out of luck if you didn't do the work in Korea.
