That 2 week mandatory quarantine can be quite expensive. I think it's 150,000won per day. It might be a little over 2k USD to complete the whole quarantine.
I was permitted to quarantine at home. Didn't cost me a cent.
Are you a gyopo with home in Korea?
No. I'm a Canadian F-5 visa holder with a residence here. You cannot travel to Korea now unless you have a long-term visa or are Korean. My ID card was the only reason I was able to get my boarding pass, otherwise I would not be able to fly in.
I thought you can enter visa free and get the long term visa after arriving in Korea.
I'm a gyopo (US citizen) but trying to get the F4 in US involves getting a covid test. I'm afraid I might get covid in the process of getting the covid test.And I thought you don't need a visa to go to Korea if you are a US citizen, not even a tourist visa.
Hopefully they're keeping diseased Americans out. I'd hate for these incompetent people to be getting about just now. "Even" as an American citizen (lmfao right?), you might need to follow some rules though. To stop the spread of a disease I think they want you to show that you don't have it before arriving. It's a bit crazy but that's how it seems to be. Good luck!
