The collation rules of your (and my) locale say that these strings are
the same:

[markus(at)teetnang markus]$ cat > t
국방비
북한의
[markus(at)teetnang markus]$ uniq t
국방비
[markus(at)teetnang markus]$

Make sure that you have initdb'd the database under the right locale.
There's not much PostgreSQL can do if strcoll() says that the strings
are equal.
