Work permits (employment pass) are not based on nationality. There is a foreign worker category, but Koreans don't come under that type of employment type and conditions.

To get an EP the minimum monthly salary must be RM5k or over (basic salary) and a university degree is also necessary.

English mother-tongue teachers are prioritised, but there may be other positions available here. You could check out the Jobs section from the green banner above. The jobs tend to come in waves and as Ramadan is coming up you may find it rather quiet in Malaysia from 18 June for a couple of months.
