I'm finishing at my hagwon in 2 months and would like to go home for a month then come back and then start a job in another city.

Do you need to go through the lengthy document collection process again to work at another academy?

Thanks for any info

You need to switch to a D-10 (looking for work visa). That will allow you 6 months to look for another job without having to collect new documents. You can also leave the country and come back.

The problem with that is that my flight has already been booked one day after i finish my contract. So I can't stay in korea for D10 processing.

Is it possible to get some kind of visa extension if i get a new job lined up before I leave??

You might can get an extension. Try for the D10 anyway and explain you situation to the immigration officer. When I did mine, they just wrote D10 on the back of my ARC and updated their computer that I was on a D10 now.
