Description plmday 2013-02-18 09:58:38 UTC

Konsole could not display CJK characters, all replaced with question marks.  Actually not specific to CJK characters, I found no Unicode character can be properly displayed in Konsole.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. `ls` files whose name contain CJK/Unicode characters, or
2. Input CJK/Unicode characters from an input engine, say IBus.
Actual Results:  
CJK/Unicode characters are all displayed as question marks.

Expected Results:  
CJK/Unicode chracters

Are you sure you have set a font capable to display the characters as well as setting the correct locale? (*.utf-8)

Ah, sorry, my fault, after switching to systemd on Arch, I forgot to set the system-wide locale.
