Not speaking from experience, but I would find an international clinic and ask this question there, or find a 산부인과 (women's hospital) and seek advice from there.

Abortion is illegal here but it might be worthwhile to ask at a women's hospital, at least to find out whether there are any options/grey areas. If I got pregnant here, I'd be on the first flight back to Canada to have the procedure done. Not a friendly place for that sort of thing. Nonetheless, good luck!

I can only go on a friend's experience 5+ years ago, but it wasnt illegal with the signing of some sort of waiver form.

Best to find an international clinic to get the facts though. Good luck.

It's permitted for certain cases, such as incest, danger to the life of the mother, victim of rape.
