Well, since I'm not writing a lot these days, let me direct you to Scroozle, whose "State of Public English Education In Korea" is pretty spot-on, and suggests a set of reforms I could get behind.
TL:DR: (as a Marmot commenter once wrote:)
1. Good foreign English teachers
2. Many foreign English teachers
3. Cheap foreign English teachers
Choose 2.
(Right now Korea is choosing 2 and 3, and forgoing 1)
Go read the whole article... and argue with him if you like.
