The Chinese part of the korean font package is uglier than the system
default one. While the korean font is always installed by default,
those chinese characters are displayed as korean font in en_us.utf8.
Chinese users have suffered from that since ubuntu 4.x

The best solution may be designing a unique font for all CJK
characters, but I'm not sure if it is technically possible. In fact,
wenquanyi wants to accomplish that, and every single characters of
wenquanyi are open source and welcome for wiki-like improvement in its
web site.

The next-best solution may be that each user learn to use
fontconfig-voodoo or to edit /etc/fonts/conf.d manually. Currently it
may be the most possible solution.
