I'm going to talk to my boss tomorrow but I think its unlikely, Korea is GMT+9. I'd have to work outside of normal GMT+0 hours. My boss is great, but something like this will require higher clearance, which I doubt I'll get.

If you work in times relative to Korea’s solar day, yes. You could conceivably work from 9-5 in GMT still (from 6PM-2AM local time).

I’m not saying it’s ideal, but you’re trying to pick the least bad of some dreadful options (for which I’m sorry and wish your fiancée [and you] well as you navigate this). Keeping your current job, working it as a “second shift” job from Korea might give you stability that’s valuable here.
