Problem

International students at Korean universities on D-2 visas must obtain part-time work permits before taking jobs, but many fail to understand the permit conditions (20 hours/week, industry restrictions) or are exposed to illegal employment. Existing job platforms (Albamon, Alba Cheonguk) lack filters for foreign worker permit eligibility, wasting 2-3 days per application when students apply and are subsequently deemed ineligible.

Solution

Takes the student's visa type, semester, and permit status as input to automatically determine which industries and hours they can legally work, then filters job postings to show only compliant listings. For employers, auto-provides guidance on required documentation for hiring international workers (work permit, social insurance applicability) and offers multilingual employment contract templates (English, Chinese, Vietnamese).

Target: International students at Korean universities on D-2/D-4 visas, aged 20-30 / Self-employed business owners (restaurants, convenience stores, logistics) seeking to hire international students
Revenue Model: Per Transaction at ~$3.70 per job posting (employer-paid), free for students, Premium Subscription (priority listing + employment contracts) at ~$21.60/month per business
Ecosystem Role: Infrastructure
MVP Estimate: 2_weeks
