The full guide
F-2-7 is genuinely different from most routes in this dataset: it's an in-country status upgrade, not something you apply for from abroad. You generally need to already be legally resident in Korea for at least 1 year on another visa status (work, study, etc.) before you can apply. Once granted, it's also unusually generous — no employer sponsor requirement at all, meaning you can freelance, change jobs, or start a business freely, with a direct path to F-5 permanent residency after 3 years.
