Without UNICODE, sizeof(TCHAR) == 1. This is no effect. CJK multibyte
character is 2 byte size.

example:
string "새 값 #1" has 6 characters. It is  max_val_name_len.
w/  UNICODE, this string is 6 * sizeof(WCHAR) bytes.
w/o UNICODE, this string is 8 bytes.
             8 == space(1) * 2 + #(1) + 1(1) + 새(2) + 값(2)

If you can't non englidh character, please install following font:
"Arial Unicode"

I'm sorry my poor english. but it is true.
Thanks.
