While she is Korean and speaks the language fluently, the 59-year-old is actually not from South Korea, but from China.

Is the sentence too long? It so, how could it be split?

Thanks.

@tanguatlay,
You could add a comma after Korean, that would separate the clause "and speaks the language fluently."

I would write it this way: She is Korean, and speaks the language fluently. She is from China, not South Korea

I give up. The last sentence should not be in the quote. Those are my words.

From China, she also speaks Korean fluently.
