I'm interested in starting a small business in Korea. Can anyone point to a webpage related to business regulations and law? Has anyone here tried to do something similar?

Unless you are married to a Korean and your business partners are family members then don't dream of doing business here. Everyone (Koreans) will say yes we can do that for you but in the end you will end up paying money out all over the place with no result.

First look around and see how many of our lot have started a business here that are not married to a Korean. Then look at those that are married to a Korean and see how many aren't in business with the family that they have married into.

Koreans are good at stealing ideas but terrible at being honest in business with our lot. They use us for ideas and contacts etc full stop.
