After my Korean C-4 visa expires, can I re-enter immediately as a visa-free national? [closed]

I hava question in regards to my current work visa in Seoul South Korea. I am a US citizen in Seoul, South Korea, on a C-4 work visa that will expire next week.

If don't have a employer to renew or reapply for the C-4 visa to stay longer, can I do a visa run to another country and just come back to South Korea? Visa-free entry for 90 days as a tourist would let me stay longer until I can obtain the right paperwork. I would then leave and apply for a new work visa if I decide to stay and work in Korea.
