What do you do for work there? Looking to retire in a couple of years, me and the missus are looking to be expats and were thinking of Thailand because of the taxes (she is Thai and I am Korean). Maybe Korea (more developed) would be a better option depending on out of country pension taxes.
I'm an architect.

Personally I would choose a country with good healthcare / benefits - Korea is top notch in that regard, affordable, easy access, etc. Although I'm not sure I'd retire here. We likely won't retire in the US either so it'll be interesting what we end up doing in ~35 years LOL
