How did you create this file? And how do you choose "cjk-latex"?

No. The right solution is to tell lyx2lyx that it should do this conversion.
This can be done quickly if you can answer the following questions?

1) Are the .lyx files produced by cjk-lyx always in "euc-kr" encoding? If
not, what other possibilities exist?
2) Does cjk-lyx set the encoding name with the \inputencoding comamdn
in .lyx files?
3) Are the .lyx files cretaed by cjk-lyx always in one encoding, or can they
contain stuff in different encodings (as determined by the language of a
piece of text)?

Maybe you can send me the file you used for the screenshots in the format
that cjk-lyx produces, or is it not possible to produce such a file with
cjk-lyx?

This is not a lyxl2lyx problem, but a tex2lyx problem. tex2lyx simply does
not handle encodings correctly. A .lyx file with "utf8x" as \inputencoding
is not valid currently.

I am sure that we can resolve these problems with your help. If in time for
the beta depends on when Jose plans to release it.
