Does opening a bank account take longer than expected?

Machine translation. It may differ from the original.

As I get ready to settle in, I'm wondering whether I should get an account opened first, but some people say you can't before the visa comes through and others say you can even on a tourist visa, so I'm confused. I'm curious about the experiences of people who've actually done it.

은행 계좌 개설 생각보다 오래걸리나요

이번에 정착 준비하면서 계좌부터 뚫어놔야 하나 고민 중인데 비자 나오기 전에는 못 만든다는 말도 있고 관광비자로도 된다는 말도 있어서 헷갈려요. 실제로 겪어보신 분들 경험이 궁금합니다.
