This is because rice is 5-6 (3 to 17) times more expensive in South Korea. Fruits are very expensive too.
The passengers carried 3-5 sacks of rice each, each weighing 30-50kg and of course exceeded the weight allowance. The South Koreans refused to pay for the 'excess luggage' and thus the flight was delayed.

The airfare is very cheap. 300+ RMB. Each person earned about 1600+ RMB (based on the article's calculation) per trip after deducting airfare. Qingdao is quite near to South Korea.
