But I can tell you this, immigration don't consider the rules standard, but rather guidelines. I had other issues with immigration officials, and when dealing with other officers (even in the same office) I got different answers - and went with the answers I wanted. Bruhaha!
Oh, I also sat on my a ss (according to immigration) for months and no worries, when I visited the office for application for employment, and technically could do it for 2 years (duration of F-2-1). So you do not need to be employed to be in Korea....or else I woulda been booted. When I visited immigration after my break from all work, the guy joked with me that I must have married a rich girl and he envied my ability to do nothing all day. I told him that I was competing in the world computer games tourney, and needed all that time for training.....I think he actually believed me, sad.....
