dotnet internationalization: [quoted text, click to view]
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture should not affect the result.
Most likely you declared that LoadStringW uses ANSI strings.
Take a look at [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)]

Question LoadStringW and Preserving Koren Wide Chars

I am trying to load a Korean string resource from a DLL.

I use LoadStringW after setting Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture to
Korean.

The string I'm trying to receive should be comprised of the following 5
characters:
0xc6a9 0xc9c0 0x002f 0xd488 0xc9c8

however what I get is:
0x00a9 0x00c6 0x00c0 0x00c9 0x002f

Note the relationship between what I expected and what I received.

Anyone have ideas on what I'm doing wrong?
