New submission from Sangpil Yoon: I'm not sure if this is a bug or a designed behavior, but I think it would be nice for beginners to be able to enter his/her local characters from an interactive prompt. As interactive mode lacks source code encoding declaration, the interpreter seems to assume that its input is encoded in UTF-8, when the actual characters you enter are not. Fix for issue #1097 doesn't seem to help. I'm using Microsoft Windows XP Korean.
