Just checking up on the legality of something...

My director runs three branches of the same hagwon chain in different areas of the city, and wants me to split my time between them - 2 days at one, 2 at another and the last day at the third.

I know it's illegal to work for two different companies, but these are the same hagwon with the same director, just different locations - Logically I can't see any reason for this to be an issue, but logic and Korean immigration are not concepts often found in close proximity...

Anyone had any experience of this issue?

Go to immigration
fill in the application form
Add some documentation from your boss.
pay your 120k won (60k for each additional location)
get the additional locations placed on your ARC
Legal as can be.

No visit to immigration would make it illegal.
