It shouldn't, if all you're doing is saving and redisplaying Unicode 
characters between the database and your site, you should be fine in 
that regard.  I believe a lot of the issues come up when you're trying 
to use string comparing and modifying functions that aren't Unicode safe.

PHP isn't Unicode ready and I've been saving and displaying Unicode 
Japanese, Chinese and Korean for a good while now (since I started using 
mysql 4.1.x).  But I don't do any comparison operations, or use anything 
that depends on the length of the Unicode string.

I'm currently displaying Unicode strings in my Django site, but haven't 
messed with editing the strings yet.

I'm no Unicode expert though, and I trust that the Django devs (and 
contributors) are much more familiar with the issues at hand than I am.  
Just wanted to chime in with my own experiences. :)
