I am considering a trip to Korea, but I am wondering if there are any special visa or inspection requirements for Japanese living in Hawaii to visit Korea at this time.
If anyone knows anything or has been to Korea recently, please let us know.

A visa is required.

My daughter-in-law (Japanese nationality) living in Hawaii and my son-in-law (Korean nationality living in Hawaii) planned a trip to Korea to show my grandson, but my daughter needed a visa and applied for it at the consulate, but they said it would take 4 weeks to get the visa and my grandson's summer vacation would be over, so only my son-in-law and grandson So my son-in-law and grandson went alone. I heard that if you make your plans early enough, you can get the visa.

Thank you for your immediate comments. It was very helpful to hear your specifics. I will inquire at the consulate once.

I am going to Korea.
Currently, a tourist visa is required to enter Korea for travel purposes.
To enter Korea, you need to submit a negative test certificate at least 2 days before departure. Also, it is required to retest within 3 days of entry and report the results.
I applied at the Korean consulate in Japan for a family visitor visa, which is a different type of visa from a tourist visa, and it was approved within a week or so while I was temporarily back in Japan. The tourist visa takes a little longer (about 2 weeks). I think the waiting time from application to approval is different from the Korean Consulate in Hawaii, but just for your information.
