Encoding error in AD server when sending non-English values as CN attribute

[glozeus]

When sending Korean values in the format of CN=홍길동 to the AD server, it appears as í��길ë�� with garbled characters. Is there any way to resolve this issue?

I don't understand what this screenshot is supposed to be showing. Please provide a minimal reproducible example.

-- code

client.bind(connection.username, connection.password, function (err) {
    if (err) {
        console.log("Error in new connetion " + err)
    } else {

      var entry = {
        objectclass: 'user',
        };

       // const nm = 'HGD' //English ADD Succcess.
       const nm = '홍길동' //Korean ADD Succcess. but the characters are corrupted and saved

        const dn = 'CN=' + nm + ',OU=a,DC=zeus,DC=com';

        client.add(dn, entry, function (err) {
            if (err) {
                console.log("err in new user " + err);
            } else {
                console.log("added user")
            }
        });
    }

When Korean characters are included in CN, they get corrupted and additional characters are added.

See the test added in #884. The entry gets added, retrieved, and shows the same characters as was input.
