Our expat community just had its second vaginal breech birth in Korea! Lots of people are having homebirths with Korean midwives or Dr. Chund, the Korean homebirth OB. If you are in Korea and want to know your options, check out the Birthing in Korea website:
http://www.birthinginkorea.com
or the Expat Parents Forum:
http://expatparents.50.forumer.com/
There are English childbirth classes (general and Hypnobirthing), English-speaking doulas, English speaking lactation counselors, Seoul LLL (schedule is on Facebook), waterbirth, homebirth and VBAC. It can be difficult to find, but over the past year, a community has formed, so don't feel overwhelmed, you do have choices in Korea!
