1. Go to https://ko.wikipedia.org
2. If you can reproduce the issue there, right-click the first link on the left and choose Inspect Element (Q).
3. In the Inspector pane that opens, click the Fonts tab in the top right corner. Which font or fonts are listed there?

Did the same Korean sites display OK in earlier versions of Firefox, on the same system? In other words, is this a new problem that just appeared in the latest Firefox update?

The problem sites were my (1) Gmail account, (2) Business email account, (3) Words displayed on the Firefox Tab for daum.net, and (4) my Firefox Bookmarks. I did not have this trouble till yesterday. After submitting the report, I completely shut down my laptop and then restarted everything. I no longer have this problem now, but is worried why this happened, and what I can do if this happens again, other than completely restarting everything.

> I no longer have this problem now

Then I think this should be closed as WORKSFORME.

Closing, as I don't think there's anything more we can do to investigate this for now; please re-open if the problem happens again.
