|
|
Hello,
A while back I asked about running. Since then I noticed on this from talk about a 'letter of release'. In my post 'Can I Run' someone wrote that I could just claim 'family problems' at the airport and get away. But how about this release letter? I wouldn't have that, though I do have a multiple exit-re-entry visa. Will I be okay, if I run unbeknownst to my employer? |

If you don't want to work in Korea again, or until after your current contract expires, you have nothing to worry about. Just go. |

If you want to run, just leave. No-one will stop you.
Make sure you turn in your ARC when you leave (they won't ask for it because you have a re-entry permit).
You will NOT be able to find another LEGAL job here until your current visa expires if you pull a runner.
IF you quit (run), leave and return without handing in your ARC on the way out they will treat you as though you just went on a holiday and you are still bound to your current employer - in effect commiting visa fraud if you return on the same visa and that CAN get you banned from 2 to 99 years. |
