Not that it changes your underlying point, but the main reason Koreans don't sleep with the fan on is not because it causes heart attacks, but because it either a) sucks the air out of the room, or b) chops up the air such that they cannot breathe. Both lead to suffocation, and death, but the "reason" ro different. Doesn't make it any less crazy, though.
