| How does Taiwan, China, and Mongolia compare to Korea when it comes to job opportunities, pay, benefits, and especially visa requirements for immigration? |

That is a very interesting question. If only there were some kind of information super-highway that you could access.

The remuneration package (pay + benefits (salary, airfare, housing, etc)) in Korea is the best in Asia (probably still the best in the world) for a green-as-grass, wet-behind-the-ears newbie (outside of the JET program).
Taiwan is a close 2nd (pay is good but usually no benefits).
China is a rapidly climbing 3rd (usually airfare and housing but pay is still a bit low). Salaries have just about tripled in the last few years and would be expected to climb due to excessive demand for teachers.
Mongolia is at the bottom of those 4.
In terms of visa application process:
None of them are particularly daunting.
Korea is a bit of a pain with the added requirement of getting an apostille on your documents (CBC and copy of your degree) but if you can't deal with that then you won't do well abroad either.
