Anyways, I didnt know by sending this message that it could be wrong. If it is, I am very sorry and you can of course delete it.


it's legal if you get your E2 visa stamped and get all the appropriate paperwork, including permission from your current employer. if you're saying that it's legal to participate in a movie (whether you're paid or not) then you're ignorant of the legalities or a liar.

even volunteer work is technically illegal, without having approval and an extra visa stamp, and foreigners have been busted for it on numerous occasions.

even if 99.9% of people are reasonable, it only takes one angry xenophobe to call immigration ... then you're in a world of crap.

While a hunchback with leprosy is probably more attractive than I am, it has no bearing on my feelings about acting. I'm not interested in it in any form. I prefer to stay out of the public eye and honestly the public probably prefers it that way.

I hear it is not only illegal in terms of violation of the E2 visa, it is also in violation of hiring practice regulations with the actors union of Korea.
I hear that screen actors either have to have the entertainment visa or the family visa to be legal. However, I'm sure it's often overlooked.

Perhaps it is advertising, but in a way, it's also a public service announcement, as many people would view working in entertainment as an opportunity

They did that many times.

Sorry for wrong information.

Dave has a cash cow here--he's not missing the won. Facebook takes this kind of advertising for free.
