korean


you can check whether you have some korean fonts in the most common legacy encodings available to your x-server with:

     ~$ xlsfonts |grep ksc 

and

     ~$ xlsfonts |grep ksx 

a few korean bitmap fonts are already part of xfree86.rpm. therefore, almost all systems with x installed already have some korean fonts and the output of the above xlsfonts command should at least contain:

     -daewoo-gothic-medium-r-normal--16-120-100-100-c-160-ksc5601.1987-0     -daewoo-mincho-medium-r-normal--16-120-100-100-c-160-ksc5601.1987-0     -daewoo-mincho-medium-r-normal--24-170-100-100-c-240-ksc5601.1987-0 

you only need to install additional fonts if you want to have other sizes or styles.
