I am in need of help. I came to Seoul Korea with my wife and two children hoping for a better life as my wife has promised us. I am an American citizen as are my children. My wife is a Korean citizen. After we arrived she turned everything around on me and is trying to take the kids away from me and make me leave. It has been a nightmare. Can she possibly do this to me and take them away from me? What are my rights here as a foreigner. I want to take my kids back to the US and deal with things legally there if I have to. I don't know what I can do? If anyone has any knowledge of this kind of situation please help me with advice or knowledge.

You need a lawyer immediately. Keep some money separately. Meet all financial obligations. Be nice, kind, and courteous but you have substantial rights. You may end up divorced but you will not loose access to your children.
