Will the police or prosecutors tell immigration about my case?

A Answer

Assume yes. Korean authorities share information about criminal cases involving foreign nationals with the immigration office, particularly once a case reaches a formal disposition such as an indictment or sentence. You should not plan around the idea that immigration "won't find out." Plan around getting the best possible result in the criminal case.
