Actually I am using Unionway already for quite some time, with a lot of 
satisfaction. The only thing you should not forget to do is when you can't 
read a Korean Site in Netscape (and explorer too for that matter) is take a 
look at the view --> character set. Just start up Unionway once, and close 
it again (don't forget to install the fonts as well. After that you can 
close it again and as long as the character set is well defined, you can 
read Korean sites. Sometimes you just have to try to change back and forth 
between character set Korean and Western languages, but it works to my 
satisfaction. It's sometimes just a matter of trial and error.

There's already a version 97.

Works fine with me too, I developed the Korean version of my site with it. 
Again with a lot of trial and error, but you don't have any choice on a 
multi-lingual platform.

Korean windows 98 seems to work fine too, aside from the glitches 98 US has 
as well and a minor few more. But it works definitely better than 95.

My few won worth,
