Korean Job Discussion Forums

I used to use Sogang's website (http://korean.sogang.ac.kr/) to study Korean a while back and really liked it. Today, however, I tried to access it again and, while the same content still seems to be there, my browser now has some kind of compatibility issue with it.

I usually use Firefox and, when I access the site using Firefox, the program no longer checks my answers to the questions on the lessons (it used to make a sound and check whether the answer was correct); for the True/False section, I cannot even select an answer.

When I use IE, on the other hand, the site will actually check my answers and allow me to complete the True/False part, but the Hangeul that is used to write the questions (and the lessons) is just a bunch of illegible symbols, completely defeating the point.

Has anyone else had this problem with the Sogang site and, if so, have they figured out a way around it? And, if not, could someone please offer me some suggestions for how I might get the site working for me?

I just tried Google Chrome, Hangeul showed up just fine, but didn't go deep enough to try the questions/answers. Might be your answer.

firefox doesn't work with Sogang. in IE go to View>Encoding>Korean and then everything should show up fine (you can do the same thing in FF for when foreign text doesn't show up right).

Fix worked. Thanks again!
