Speaking German is really not the be all and end all, some of us get on quite well speaking French, Italian or Romanche. In view the op comes from Massonnens-Fribourg-Neuchatel area, one could possibly assume French may be just as useful as German.
Yes, but she apparently speaks none of the local languages. And this is pretty bad if you are looking for a job in advertising (and there are not that many jobs at the moment anyway...).

I guess her chances are slim, but she could try to use her weakness as a strength and look to find a job where being Korean is an advantage. I believe some trade chambers are always good to call. Either they might have an opening themselves for a junior business person or helpt to find employers dealing with Korea.
