I just found out it's possible to do this at no extra cost, as long as the subscription is renewed while in the US (if you do it while in Korea it's ridiculously expensive). I don't mind waiting a few weeks longer for magazines to arrive, I'm just worried they won't arrive at all. Does anyone actually do this?

Care to elaborate on this? What, you simply change the address or what?

You have to contact the magazine and give them your Korean address. At least this is what you do for Rolling Stone. She said other magazines are generally the same.

There's also an option of arranging annual subscription through a Korean distributor, if you can manage to set it up in Korean:

Rolling Stones in particular: http://www.yes24.com/24/goods/2179872

not trying to knock on you, just trying to help the op out, but what the book offers the same service and is quite cheaper. still much more expensive than getting a state-side priced subscription though.
