The kidnapping occurred at 3 a.m. Sunday in Clark, north of Manila, when a group of about 10 people showed up at the victim's house, posing as officials from the investigative and immigration agencies.
The kidnappers made multiple ransom calls to the family, a diplomatic source said, declining to elaborate citing privacy concerns.
The ministry and the Korean Embassy in the Philippines had worked with local law enforcement for a swift release of the national and provided consular assistance to the family members.
