I was excited to see that the Kindle 3 can display Korean (even though the font is awful). I'm hoping to get one soon, but for now I just have Kindle for PC on my computer.

So, I got a Korean book in epub format. It was showing up fine in Adobe DE. Then I used Calibre to convert it to mobi. When I bring it up in Kindle for PC all the Korean just shows as squares.

Is this likely a Calibre problem or a Kindle for PC problem? Do you think my book will work on a Kindle 3?
