I'm hoping Dave MacLeod and Jens Wilkinson will reply with their
perspectives based on personal experience.

In the meantime, here is my own perspective, based on my choice NOT to
do that as a young graduate, instead opting to earn money:

GO ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

There are several programs in Korea, but you can surely find programs
that will suit you all over the world. Not all require an MA in ESL,
though all require a degree and most seem to prefer a degree that
suggests particular facility with the English language (such as an
English BA). Many state a preference for an "American" accent,
whatever that might be. :-)

Good luck! Have fun! Go do it!
