So I'm breaking my EPIK contract, and apparently I'll either be banned from Korea for a while, or have some kind of strike against me for it. I'm not too concerned about it, as I don't plan on returning, but I was curious as to exactly what goes on your record when this occurs. Does anyone have any verifiable info on this?

You won't be barred from Korea.

Immigration doesn't care if you quit as long as you don't break any laws (mischief, theft, etc) before you leave.

You can return on the next flight and start looking for a hagwan job if you wanted to.

EPIK on the other hand will do their best to ensure you never work at another PS in Korea.
