So, here's the potential problem. My last day of work for Hagwon A is on Oct 31 and my first day at Hagwon B is on Nov 1. Hagwon B boss wants me to do the Japan visa run in mid November. Is this illegal, and is this a problem?

It's illegal if you work before you have your visa. Tell your new boss you'll do your visa run on the 1st & 2nd of November and start teaching on Monday the 5th.

It could very well be a LARGE problem.

When is the expiry date on your ARC?
