So a lot of Asian students (Oriental side) come to the US to study but have been going back after getting their education, etc. This includes students from various common genres of today's workforce (Hospitality, Business, etc). In fact this was one of the sole reasons why South Korea today is such an amazing developed country.
Now the same signs are occurring in Hong Kong, parts of China (Other than Shanghai, etc) and even countries like Taiwan. More Westerners are now learning Korean and especially Chinese (Mandarin and Cantonese) than ever before.
It use to be that people wanted to learn English as it was considered the language of "success", it that not going to be the case in the next 30 years? I sense a shift.
