hmm, i tried it on osx + hive (in local mode) and i can see chinese characters gets displayed properly on hive shell. so we know hive utf-8 encoding works, :)
like what wd said, check to see if the file is utf-8 encoded. also were u using hive shell to check the output? can you cat the data file and check if your terminal displays chinese characters correctly? i know some terminals doesn't support chinese, so just to make sure. hope that helps.
