Do you prepend the SPAMAssassin report into the message? Or mangle the 
message otherwise?

You can craft such message yourself:

1) use a subject with Korean phrasea
2) use a sender with a Korean comment
3) write a text with the Korean charset and let it encode with base64.

E.g. use the Google translator, then recode the UTF8 stuff into EUC-KR or 
KSC_5601. Or check your SPAM for mails in Big5.

Alternatively, drop the config option about languages.
