Training ended on Friday and I passed! Everyone in my group did too though apparently that doesn't happen every time. Our group worked really hard and showed improvement everyday. Since then I've been busy finding an apartment. I had been hoping not to spend more than $500 per month but that's impossible in Seoul. The first apartment that the realtor showed me was what Koreans call a "one room" which is basically a studio. It wasn't very impressive and I was quite surprised when the realtor said it cost about $680 per month. I was shown a few more apartments, a couple were nicer but none that I really liked. The realtor was really nice though and took me to McDonalds for lunch. Afterwards I met with the logistics guy at my branch and he showed me a building where lots of teachers live. It was a much nicer building, with better security, and nicer apartments with brand new beds. And it was the same price as the ones I was thinking of going for. I move in tomorrow.
