This is either incorrect, or fradulent.  The law applies to all full
time employees.  Attempts by schools to declare that their employees are
not covered because they are either "contract" or "part-time" have been
ruled illegal before.  The difference here between following the law and
not following the law is 600,000 Won.  Do you want to work for a company
that will break the law for that much money?  (And if they won't follow
the law, do you think they'll follow the contract?)

Send COPIES.  Not saying that BCM has any intention to do so, but once a
school is in possesion of this information, they can start processing a
visa.  If the contract isn't what you were expecting, you may find that
their desire to do paperwork in advance will now keep you from working
anywhere else in Korea.

I have no bad information about this school, which in itself is a
favorable comment (i'll send horror stories to anyone who asks about
other schools) but I advise you to get and read the contract itself (if
it has blanks or is unsigned, it isn't a contract) before you part with
original or certified copies of any documents.
