None. Learn languages of nations which you can sell your skills to. Both China and Russia have ab abundance of CS students, and are cheaper than you(assuming you are in US or Europe proper). Plus, Russians seem to be quite OK with English. Korean or Japanese, I say.

Japanese is much easier than both. (This obviosuly doesn't answer your question but just a tip)

  Where does this come from? It's nice to have alphabets, but you still have to learn kanji... All that aside, it is ranked as pretty equivalently difficult to Chinese by a lot of sources. (foreign service, etc).

    Plenty of loan words and easier to pronounce.

Agreed. IMO even Spanish is a better choice.

Korean is considered by some to be the most difficult language for native English speakers to learn, the only thing easy is the Hangul writing system which is very logical and easy to learn. If you live in the US then there should be no question that Spanish should be the language to learn. If you live in Europe then German would be my choice.
