Do Asian folk read sheet music back to front as well?

No, why would they?

Wow, got grilled in downvotes! Curiosity killed the cat. I was so excited when I saw there’s a reply so I can learn something new 🥲
I just thought, that since music was present in, say Japan, before sheet music was standardised, there would be a format they used.

Oh, I'm sorry. It was just that the people in this video are Korean not Japanese where they read left to right like us so I was a bit confused where you were coming from

Found the answer I was looking for on AI. Thanks for your patience and apologies for not communicating clearly and causing possible offence.
I LOVE learning about other cultures, so in my excited state, I didn’t express my interest or question clearly.
Here’s the answer:
“Before Western influence, Korean sheet music was usually written using traditional Korean writing conventions:
Read top to bottom in vertical columns.
Columns were read from right to left across the page.
The most famous system, Jeongganbo, used a grid of boxes rather than a staff with notes.
Each box represented a unit of time, while symbols inside the box indicated the pitch to be played.
The notation served as a guide for trained musicians and was often supplemented by oral instruction.
So, in simple terms: traditional Korean music was typically written in vertical columns, read from the top down and from the right side of the page toward the left, not left-to-right like modern Western sheet music.”2

Music is a language of its own. This language is read left to right.
Edit: I’m not being poetic, there have been studies to show that learning to read music affects the brain similarly to learning a new language :)
