Hi Al,
You need an "iOS audio interface". This device converts you anologue line out audio to digital so your iPad can receive it.
Google this and you will see there are a lot to choose from like Focusrite, Behringer and Steinberg - just make sure it is 'class compliant' which means it works with iOS. If it doesn't come with a lightning connector you will also need an Apple CCK (Camera connection kit - which transforms your USB cable to lightning - if you buy one go for the type that also allows powering of your iPad).
The other low cost alternative is to record your audio in your Korg as mp3 then try to sync and replace the audio on your video - but for this you need to be familiar with video editing.

In the not too distant future all this complication won't be necessary as more and more keyboards are coming out with USB audio built in. I recently bought a Yamaha P121 and a single USB cord does two-way digital audio and midi and its iOS compatible.
