There is NO extra cost and it takes about 2 weeks to get the new NHIC booklet after you apply to have her added.
IF you are both foreigners (I assumed you are since your other thread was about an F3) then you need to supply:
originals and copies of:
Her ARC
Her passport
Your ARC
Your passport
marriage certificate (English or Korean).
Oh and the application.

My fee actually went down when my wife was added b/c she wasn't working. The NHIC figures that since I was supporting a family on a single salary the fee should be lower since I needed all the money I could lay my hands on. |

I'm paying exactly the same with my wife, two kids and mother in-law on mine. |
