I signed a contract to a hakwon but they have not bought my plane ticket or did anything for me yet. I got another job offer that I want more now. Since technically I haven't done anything for the school (or vice versa) can I just tell them I can't teach anymore and accept the other job offer?

If you have submitted the hard copies of your documents (CBC/degree) to the first school then you are pretty much stuck for the next 90 days (till your visa confirmation number expires).

If you have NOT submitted any documents to them then you are free to take another offer.
