I get an International Driver Permit every year in the States when I visit and bring that back to Korea with me. I have a motorcycle license from America, and Korea is a signatory for the IDP. Works fine.

I've got a scholarship to teach english in korea in a couple of months for a year and i ride bikes (SUZUKI INTRUDERS FTW =P) and am wondering how much i can look at (in NZD) buying a bike over there??

There are motorcycle schools in Korea??? A license is needed??? In my experience, Korean motorcyclists are above the law. They can drive wherever and however they want.

I now about 4 or 5 international, but Korean motorcycle exam is an easiest of them. But their car test IS cool.

You are forgetting that 75% of motorbikes you see in the city are on the sidewalk....hello?

yay, he passed!

I wanted to get a license, been riding for a few years, but everybody says the driving course is designed to make sure almost everybody fails. Even experienced drivers from other countries fail the test! It's obviously not a good test from what I can see.

a good test if you're only riding below speeds of 10 km/h. While I learned something from the test, there were somethings I needed to learn and didn't....such as counter steering and leaning, as well as braking in an emergency. Far more important than being able to make a 90 degree turn at 10km/h without putting my foot down. Those motorcycle cops are impressive though.

What a joke.
Granted if you can't ride a bike properly you would definitely fail the test but it's not really a 'road' test at all and is hardly applicable for real world riding.
No wonder so many people don't bother and just punt around on 125cc bikes in Korea, like me.
haha.. no problem. the test is pointless. its designed not to test your abilities, but to weed out people who can't ride a motorbike. about 30 people lined up for the test, only 2 passed.
