I lived 5 years in Korea, parent's advice is good.
Additionally:
- Sponsoring a work visa (most likely E-7, maybe E-3) is trivial for big companies. Don't get married if you don't need to.
- Big conglomerates hire foreigners all the time. Samsung, LG, ... Give it a try.
- To a lesser extent, big American tech companies too. I have friends who managed to stay in Korea and who are now working at Microsoft (specifically GitHub).
