Do Yemen passport holders need a visa for South Korea?

Yes, a visa, arranged in advance through South Korea’s own government channel. Filing the Korea e-Arrival Card online ahead of time is optional. It is free on the official site and the paper arrival card is still accepted at the counter.

The Korea e-Arrival Card: what it means for you
