Quoted speech

[Robert Lauriston]

Korean, and Chinese sites is mostly a bunch of boxes, since those
fonts aren't installed and the glyphs don't exist in whatever font my
web browser is substituting.

If you look at a Japanese, Korean or Chinese site, for instance, you'll generally see they manage to have a plenty of non-ASCII characters in them ;) Alternatively, you can put & escape sequences in your HTML for those characters.
