Difference between get byte array from string in C# and Java

Question

I want to convert a string value to the same byte array in C# and Java with following codes:

C#:

string key="EA1302AFBCCF791CB0065BFAD948B092";
byte[] keyByte = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(plainKey);

Java:

String key="EA1302AFBCCF791CB0065BFAD948B092";
byte[] keyByte = (key).getBytes("UTF-8");

But the length of the generated array is 32 in C# and 343 in Java. I have to create a byte array in C# same as Java, so please don't suggest changes for my Java code.

@ThomasTimbul I check it by test unit (break points) on netbeans 8.2 and Visual Studio 2019 — Mahyar Esteki

I highly doubt your reading is correct. Code seems ok. Regardless of the parentheses, it should work as expected. Couldn't reproduce at least. — Fildor

@MahyarEsteki then I suggest you print keyByte.length to System.out instead, and you'll probably find that they match. — Thomas Timbul

I tried:

 public static void main(String args[]) throws UnsupportedEncodingException {
        String key="EA1302AFBCCF791CB0065BFAD948B092";
        byte[] keyByte = key.getBytes("UTF-8");
        System.out.println("Length: " + keyByte.length);

    }

output is:

Length: 32
