I have available to take TKD (which I am taking) Hapkido, and Kumdo. The TKD is offered MWF, and I can usually catch 4 or so 1 and a half hour long classes a week (there are 6 total a week, for 40 dollars a month.) Hapkido is offered all weekdays for 40 dollars a month. Kumdo is offered MWF, for 50 dollars a month. I was thinking about taking TKD M and F, Hapkido T and T, and Kumdo on W. (Assuming my work schedule permits. Would I benefit from mixing it up like this, or should I stick with just one or 2 of them? Keep in mind that I am just starting, but I am in Korea, and these are Korean martial arts...I don't know if I will ever get the opportunity again to study KMA in Korea, or for that matter, any MA in it's country of origin.

I think you answered your question yourself in your last sentence. Take advantage of the opportunity while you can. If it proves to much I would only take TKD and Hapkido since the two compliment each other very well and will give you excellent kicking skills as well enhanced self-defense skills with respect to joint locks.

It depends on how long you are going to be in Korea for. If you are there for a short stay, why not...
But if you are there for more than a year or so... I would nt mix three semi-similar but different arts..maybe two at the most.
You would most likely lose more and go slower if you are looking at a lengthier period of time like a year...
Good luck! Have fun!
