He was in transit at the airport, after taking a Korean Air flight from Ha Noi to Japan's capital of Tokyo.
South Korea issued a wanted notice nationwide and Tan was arrested in Daegu City, 300km southeast of Seoul.
A similar case was reported on January 21, when a Chinese couple entered South Korea illegally through an automatic immigration gate. They were arrested five days later.
