Foreign Language Support In-Game?

I currently have a English version of World of Warcraft installed and I was wondering how to get the game to support Chinese, Japanese, and Korean fonts as well. I saw a korean guild on the US Server Warsong named "깝노노."

I then tried to create a guild name with foreign font and the game says invalid text. I'm guessing the game doesn't support other languages. I'm asking how to do this because it was possible for someone else to have Korean names.

I'm using Windows XP and I know my computer has oriental fonts since I read them all the time on Internet Explorer and Firefox but when I use World of Warcraft, it doesn't work.

Alternate language characters are not supported by the US client and thus the guild name will not be displayed probably and will usually show up as a question mark. The use of such characters is not currently a violation of our policy, as long as the meaning is not something inappropriate.
