hmm, i tried it on osx + hive (in local mode) and i can see chinese
characters gets displayed properly on hive shell. so we know hive utf-8
encoding works, :)

like what wd said, check to see if the file is utf-8 encoded. also were u
using hive shell to check the output? can you cat the data file and check
if your terminal displays chinese characters correctly? i know some
terminals doesn't support chinese, so just to make sure.

hope that helps.

use utf8
or have you try to use insert overwrite to local directory and chek the
output file?
