I then want to spend the rest of my life working in academia, ideally at a university in Korea. If not then my next hope would be Japan or Singapore. Literally my entire life for the past six years has revolved around Asia and I love the region so much, if my plan succeeds then I'll have everything I've ever wanted.

But, if Trump starts a war with North Korea and Kim Jong Un responds by nuking Seoul then basically my entire future is over lmao.
A very clear plan - from my experience such determination and hard work pays off and I wish you all the best, although I get the feeling you won't need it.

The Trump/Korea issue has come at a particularly bad time for you but hopefully that will be resolved without interruption to your admirable goals.
