Ciudadanía en South Korea
- Elegibilidad
- Vía discrecional de naturalización por matrimonio tras la disolución del matrimonio: un cónyuge extranjero que NO haya completado el período de residencia matrimonial previsto en el 제6조제2항제1호/제2호 podrá seguir reuniendo los requisitos si, mientras residía en la República de Corea y estaba casado, se vio imposibilitado de mantener una vida matrimonial normal debido a lao a otras causas NO imputables al solicitante («그 배우자의 사망이나 실종 또는 그 밖에 자신에게 책임이 없는 사유»), siempre que haya cumplido el período restante previsto en 제1호/제2호 y el Ministro de Justicia lo considere razonable (상당하다고 인정), de conformidad con la Ley de Nacionalidad 제6조제2항제3호. La ruptura matrimonial provocada por la violencia doméstica queda incluida en esta cláusula residual de «culpa ajena al solicitante» (no existe una categoría de violencia doméstica denominada por separado en la 제6조).

Resumen
Marriage-naturalization post-dissolution discretionary route: a foreign spouse who FAILED to complete the 제6조제2항제1호/제2호 married-domicile period may still qualify if, while domiciled in the ROK and married, they became unable to sustain normal married life due to the spouse's death or disappearance OR other causes NOT attributable to the applicant ('그 배우자의 사망이나 실종 또는 그 밖에 자신에게 책임이 없는 사유'), provided they have fulfilled the remaining period under 제1호/제2호 and the Minister of Justice deems it reasonable (상당하다고 인정), per 국적법 제6조제2항제3호. A domestic-violence-driven marriage breakdown is absorbed into this residual 'not-applicant's-fault' clause (there is no separately named DV category in 제6조).
