I know when you arrive in Korea, you have to get a physical which includes an HIV, drugs, and Tuberculosis test. While I have none of those diseases, I tested positive once for TB when I had to get a test for college. I was x-rayed and all that, I never had the disease but I must have been exposed to it at one point or another. Will this issue make it impossible for me to work in Korea?

They do x-ray your chest during the medical check, so if your x-ray came up clear before then it shouldn't be a problem.
