Tmobile accounts aren't meant for long term use out of the states and can be closed for excessive roaming FYI.

Planning to ‘move’ to Korea won’t work with a T-Mobile plan after +1 month, if I recall.  As @gramps28 mentioned ‘excessive roaming’  You’ll have to connect to US based towers and use +50%/month on T-Mobile’s network.

If you dig into the terms and conditions it says service can be terminated at any time.
