There is no reason why you cannot get a teaching job as long as you have the BSC. However, give your liberian nationality you may find a degree of discrimination - in Korea they like the English teachers to white and american/canadian/english. Your best bet of a job is in a private language academy. You need to find an agency either in Korea or in the country you reside which will organise a placement and arrange terms for you. In Korea they are not big on paperwork and cvs and would rather use an agency to find English teachers.
If your English is perfect then I recommend a lie. Tell them you were born in Liberia but grew up or spent a lot of time in the States or in England - the Koreans have very little experience of foreign accents and will probably not question it. If they think you have a strong connection with America they are much more likely to hire you and look beyond your nationality. It may not be fair, but it is true.

Do you mean Liberia and South Korea? In order to teach, you must be able to handle the language. Is your teaching going to be in Korean? Your English is marginal at best. What subject do you wish to teach?

Chow!!
