    Perhaps they were already speaking in Korean or whatever language when you approached. How do you know what they were speaking before you got there? I am Welsh-speaking, at least when I’m back in Wales, and English people often accuse us of just speaking Welsh to exclude them (presumably they think we speak English the rest of the time) – but we are speking it because it’s our first language! As I presume Chinese/Korean is for the students you describe. You wouldn’t go to France and expect everyone to be speaking English, would you? Just because I live in an English-speaking country doesn’t mean my first language is automatically going to be English.
