First make sure to read our step by step installation guide to Setting up your Korean Starcraft 2 account and follow the instructions to test your latency cause there is no point playing on KR/TW if you're going to lag badly.
Yea go onto ebay.com not .au and search korean starcraft or something like that. Theres a guy who sells the already made Korean accounts because you need a visa and a Korean address to register a Korean server account. Costs $100.
Be aware that buying Korean accounts from ebay breaks korean law. Though you are unlikely to have any legal problems as korea likely won't prosecute outside of korea you're still taking a risk of losing your money.
They can ban without warning or the person's ID you are using can easily gain control of the account.
I would suggest having a korean friend sign up for you if you can. Then you can buy the game yourself for < $70
Hi I am a chinese caster that have a credible source of korean account
Add my skype if you are interested to get a korean starcraft 2 account
Skype: keysersozeagave
Bnet ID: EZPikachu.676
pm on TL works too, just search EZPikachu and I'll pop up
all the korean people i know told me that giving out their KSN might get them into trouble and most of them have nfi what an i-pin is :S, hell i'd pay $100 to have a KR account on my main b.net account (unlike the ebay dude who gets you a KR acc using a new email :<)
run a tracert to kr.battle.net to see what your ping to that server may be.
click start > run > type "tracert kr.battle.net" without the " " or if you are on win7 just type tracert kr.battle.net in the search field when you click start.
you will see a bunch 1.2. 3. 4. 5. lines with numbers next to them, those numbers represent the "ping" the higher it is the worser your game connection will be.
some other battle.net region tracerts you can run to compare you ping:
tracert kr.logon.battle.net - korean
tracert sea.battle.net - sea
tracert us.logon.battle.net - us

I dont think that works, i got 25ms for all of them? Maybe thats to the website not the game server?
I just re-run all 3 tracerts and I am getting best connection to SEA then NA and finally KR (with about 400~ ping to KR :<) what kind of connection do you have? you should be getting different results for each server :S at least this is the same method that blizz GMs ask to do when running technical support forum.
hmmmmmmmmmmm
