The problem is Korea uses CDMA as a cell phone technology, and here in the US, Sprint and Verizon are your major CDMA cell phone providers. So you'd have to find a phone compatible with Korean CDMA frequencies, AND US CDMA frequencies, and then get the phone added to the US network.. Verizon is notorious for not being very friendly to non verizon phones, so I doubt they'd be much help, but I don't know about sprint's policies.
It's not like GSM where you could simply switch out the SIM card for one in the new country, and assuming the phone supports the new country's GSM frequency, you'd be golden.
Good luck!
