I do, however, have a SIM-unlocked iPad (which takes a Micro-SIM but generally requires a tablet/data-only plan to work). Is this possible to get in Korea?
I'm in Seoul right now, just arrived on Tuesday. I ordered a SIM from EG for my iPad Air a couple of days before my trip and picked it up at KBooks at ICN when I arrived.

I popped the SIM in to the iPad Air while grabbing something to eat and it's been working great ever since. I've used it in Daegu and Iksan, and now back in Seoul. Worked most of the way on the drive, too.

The iPad Air uses a nano-SIM, so that's what I ordered (and received) through EG.

When I ordered the SIM, I specified the 1GB data plan on the EG website since I didn't need any of the credit for voice.
