I truly enjoyed your story of teaching in South Korea. I loved the Burger King joke. It even had Mr. Lee, who resented foreign fast food markets from entering South Korea, crack up at your joke.
Great story.
Best wishes,
Mary

Loved your joke about being paid to persuade the students to eat Burger King. Thanks for entering this contest, and I hope you do well with the voters. Kate xx

Comment from Verna Cole Mitchell
I really enjoyed this. What an insight into a teaching world far different from my own. You answered the student quite cleverly when he tried to trip you up. Thanks for all your service for our country.

Comment from dellsworthpoet
This piece flows well. The language is conversational and warm. The narrative stays on point. It also gives the reader a view into how other nationalities view America. The images are clear.
Suggestions:
One day while we were having lunch at Burger King, he asked me why I always took the class to Burger King and not Lotteria�¢?"
Need to watch out for these pesky extra characters which sometimes show up. I have found apostrophes and emdashes will light them up.
I laughed and end the conversation.
I think you want "ended" vs "end".
Thanks for a good read.

A larger font would go a long way to make this a bit more readable, especially for old farts like me.
Just a couple of observations:
Para 3, 1st sentence: remove period after (dictatorship)
Para 4, 2nd sentence: (in it,and) should be (in it, and) Add space
Para 7, 2nd sentence: A strange editing symbol crept into your paper.
Para 11, 3rd sentence: (end) should be (ended)
You sound like your vocation has afforded you a very bright and colorful experience over the years. I'm glad for you.
