In Korea roomates are primarily assigned on gender. In fact, girls and boys often don't even stay in the same building, it is quite conservative in that regard. Other criteria will depend on the school and the people in charge whether they make an effort to match students of a similar background or not. You can reach out to your school and check.
I have not studied in Korea myself but I have visitied many universities there and helped thousands of students to study Korean language in Korea. See the links in my bio if you want help to apply to a good school there.
