This is the National Pension Plan site. Rather than rely on misinformation from someone here, have a look. If you can't find an answer I would recommend calling your Embassy.
Good luck!

I'm from the UK and have researched now and then for 4 years if it's possible to get any pension/social security back.
No joy yet. |

Britains (and Aussies and Kiwis) get their pension back in a fashion.
Their pension money is deposited into U.K.'s national pension scheme (pun intended).
They can't get a lump cash payment like Americans and Canadians.
It's all got to do with the various reciprocating agreements Korea has made with foreign countries. |
