I used to live in South Korea, and I'm British and took my UK car over there with me when I went.

The Korean system is a bit different from the UK and US (where I now live), but similar to the UK, front license plates are required at all times, and similar to the UK, they're most often long and thin like European plates, but the US style more square plates are available as well... at least they were when I was there.

The big issue that you're going to have is that they have special security screws and caps that you need to use on one of the mounting screw for both the front and rear plates. These things are nothing more than a metal cup and cap, with a regular screw inside, but you'd damage the cap if you tried to remove it and in doing so it's therefore a tamper evident mounting and the police there do look for this.

I imported my UK Honda S2000 to Korea and many UK cars, the license plates had always been taped in place as has been said above. During the import process the fact that my car had no threaded screw for a license plate blew their minds... I ended up having to just swap out the metric machine screw for a self tapping screw and go into the plastic bumper.

Annoyingly for you, you'll need to do this on the front if you do not already have a front license plate frame with a threaded mounting hole that lines up with a Korean plate.

I don't know if the Korean immigration people would accept a mounting that is not tight to the body of the car and therefore not obviously attached with their tamper proof system.

What you could do is get the factory license plate frame and either tape it, or attach it with magnets to the front of your car. I've posted about the magnet approach on the M2 in the past, and will try and dig up the thread.
