My wife and I are currently residing in South Korea and I was offered a job suddenly and will be flying to Canada on April 20th. My wife will come over in the summer on a 6 month tourist visa. We are applying outland. Do we just use our current Korean address since that is where we are both residing at the time of application and then contact them when we are both in Canada with our updated address?

yes - you can leave the Korean address for now, and change it later. As long as there is somebody there to receive any mail, you can leave the address, and change it later to your Canadian one.

Or - since you can differentiate between the sponsor's address and the applicant one, you can put your (future) address in Canada (if you have one, or if not, you can put your parents' for example).
You should mention to CIC that you're returning to Canada on APril 20th, so you won't have to provide too many proofs of intent to return to Canada - will save you a step :)

Good luck,
Sweden

Thank you very much for the information. I will attach a letter with my future Canadian residence.
