-If you wanted to study in Korea, for example get a Masters in TESOL, and you got a student visa, could you also get an E2 and work in Korea? I don't think you can have 2 visas at the same time, but I'm curious as to anyone whose done this. So how do you people studying here support yourself?

If you qualify for an E2 you CAN add part time work as a teacher to your status of sojourn on a student visa. You will need to file the same documents as an E2 teacher (change or addition to your status of sojourn).

Alternatively, as a teacher with an E2 you can add post grad study to your status of sojourn as well.

Just file the application with the local immigration office.
