If I go to Japan for a visa run, will i be placed in quarantin when i return back to Korea?

I hear that foreigners are being placed in quarantined for 1 or 2 weeks because of the fear of spreading the swine flu.

Yes. You will be quartantined, detained, anally probbed, and molested by the Tokyo secret service.

It's all over the forums. Can't you find the search engine?

Pay no attention to uncle Fonz.

Tokyo doesn't have a secret service (or perhaps it's so good I don't know about it )... and the Japanese secret service doesn't [Mod Edit] about you coming back to K-land. However, Kimmi might (depending on what visa you enter). If you show up at Incheon or Busan running a temperature of more than 98.6 F (they have infra red), it's likely you will be 'wisked' aside.

Reconsider returning to K-land (to teach English) when you use phrases such as "return back".

Hey, if you are healthy then don't worry about it. I recently got back from doing a visa run to Osaka 4 days ago. When you get back to Korea they have this thing they put up to year ear, which I assume is checking your temperature, but that is it.
