iTunes question (language issue)

Hi guys,

ok so I have some songs in korean and when i transfer the songs to iTunes, it doesn't show in korean but in weird symbols for artist name and song title. I do have the korean language installed on my computer too. I remember when i transferred songs on my ipod a long time ago it showed correctly on the ipod and on iTunes. When I recall, i don't remember doing anything special to the itunes program to make it display in korean. Am i doing something or missing something here?

any help would be appreciated

Try this

Correcting song titles with odd characters
If a song's title and information don't appear correctly, the file was probably created using a program that stores information differently from iTunes. You may be able to resolve the problem by converting the song's information tags (ID3 tags) to a different storage format.

Converting the ID3 tags is also useful for songs with information in languages that use non-Roman characters, or if you want to use your MP3 files with another program that uses a different format.

To change the format of the song information tags:
Select the songs you want to convert.
Choose Advanced > Convert ID3 Tags.
Choose a version of ID3 from the pop-up menu.
