Korean pages don't get rendered correctly. A few issues here;
First of all, some web pages (like cyworld.com) get wrong language encoding. It was okay with Safari version 2. But with Safari 3.0.2 with new WebKit is problematic.
Second - check - http://news.naver.com/sports/index.nhn?category=soccer and you will see two different korean fonts. It should use only one. Safari 2 was okay with this.
Third - Java script is less compatible than using Firefox. Specially for cyworld.com (which is the most popular site in Korea. Firefox works okay here).

Please file separate bugs for issues #2 and #3. Thanks!

I cannot reproduce this - the page looks OK to me with nightly r24064. What problems do you see? Also, are they still reproducible with nightly builds? You can download one from <http://nightly.webkit.org>.
And yes, please file separate bugs for other problems.

Is this a bug for the second problem? (Since the title mentions rendering).
The "two fonts" issue actually appears to be a synthetic bold being applied to the hangul font. I don't know if CJK fonts *should* be getting a synthetic bold for characters in the CJK planes.

I cant seem to see the difference....but it displays correctly on latest nightly build.What build were you running?

Internet Explorer also has both plain and bold text on this page. Generally, Safari seems to render it as close to IE as possible.
So I do not see any issues here.
