title: Rails internationalization problem (korean)
body: <p>I'm using rails 2.3.10 and ruby 1.9.2</p>
  
  <p>My problem can be put into these terms:</p>
  
  <pre><code># ---------------------------
  # SomeViewsController.rb
  # ---------------------------
  def index
    I18n.locale = :kr
    @news = News.new(:title =&gt; "추가", :body =&gt; "Place text here")
    @news.save
  end
  # --------------------------- 
  
  
  # ---------------------------    
  # some_views/index.html.erb
  # ---------------------------
  TITLE: &lt;%= @news.title %&gt;
  # ---------------------------    
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My problem is on the I18n.locale part. When I set it to Korean (:kr), I get this error</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>ActionView::TemplateError (incompatible character encodings: UTF-8 and ASCII-8BIT)</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>But when I set it to 'en', or the default, it displays the Korean characters just fine.</p>
  
  <p>Please, can anybody enlighten me how this is?</p>
