Sorry, I didn't know.

My bug report #169286 is 2 years and 86 days old, although the problem
perhaps has been solved already.  The example quoted there fails now
now for a different reason, described in bug report #165350,
which is 2 years and 115 days old.

cjk-latex is supposed to handle Chinese, Japanese and Korean. It
probably works well for Chinese, it never worked for Japanese and I
don't know about Korean.

Please also note that the bug #285198 reported by Hilmar Preusse is
still open.

Best regards
