Most Koreans and foreign nationals working for regular companies have their taxes automatically taken out. They have no choice what to pay. People who are self-employed or who work for small companies might be able to get away with underreporting incomes to avoid some taxation, but the government uses a variety of methods — from national insurance contributions to estimated per-employee calculations — to make sure they get at least a sizable chunk of what they are legally owed.
