This is probably because URLs should be decoded using UTF-8 or
ISO-8859-1 instead of "Big5". Even if the content-type of the request or
response body is Big5, then URL ought to be UTF-8 or ISO-8859-1.

Yes, it's using either UTF-8 or ISO-8859-1 to decode the URL parameters
(you can set this in your Connector's configuration) instead of "Big5",
which you were manually choosing when you used Java's URLDecoder.
Hope that helps.
