Yes, you need to speak Korean fluently. You can do your license conversion in English but all tests done in Korea for local recruitments are done in Korean. Oh, and you need a 4 years bachelor degree.
Your hours are enough for local Korean Air FO position (they are only asking for 1000 TT). Personally I have never seen any naturalized pilot from overseas getting a job as a local. That's because probably there are none applying as a local.
You need to speak Korean to a certain degree to be naturalized anyway and you will have to give up your original citizenship.
Thank you very much for your response.
