I understand your trepidation. I think we all had the same feeling before we handed the package over to the courier. In my opinion you have included more than enough to establish your intention to return. You've certainly provided more than I did. Again, this is only one aspect of the application and in the year or so that I have been on these forums I have yet to see anyone refused sponsorship based on a lack of intention to return to Canada. I'm sure it probably happens from time to time but, IMO, it's extremely unlikely to happen in your case given the evidence you've provided on this point.
I think you also have to remember this. You're applying from South Korea; a peaceful, prosperous country with a well educated population. Unlike other economically disadvantaged nations or countries ravaged by terrorism/war, South Koreans are not clamoring over one another trying to get to Canada any way they can. In addition, you're legally married as opposed to common law. As Rob has pointed out many times here, the overwhelming majority of spousal PR applications are successful. Applying from South Korea and being legally married, I would think that your application is almost a no-brainer for the VO.
Make sure you've included all the docs on the checklist. Make sure you've signed everywhere you have to sign. Check all that one more time. Now call UPS and sit back and wait. You'll be fine.
