[Lee00]

Did you guys are asked an interview?

I want to know if in person interview is advantageous then an interview via skype.

I am in Korea and I applied schools in U.S and U.K.

Personally, I think in-person interviews are the best way to go. Many times interviews aren't just to learn more about your work, but to judge the character of your person (very important when putting together a great cohort that will work/critique together for the next few years).

 

With that said, admissions committees are generally not unreasonable people, they wouldn't expect you to fork over serious $$$ for international flights just for an interview. For anyone that is geographically far-removed from their institution's location it is basically expected that they will go the Skype route and it wouldn't be held against you.
