In the first part of this paper we report about experiences when applying the DBpedia extraction framework to the Korean Wikipedia. We improved the extraction of non-Latin characters and extended the framework with pluggable internationalization components in order to facilitate the extraction of localized information. With these improvements we almost doubled the amount of extracted triples. We also will present the results of the extraction for Korean. In the second part, we present a conceptual study aimed at understanding the impact of international resource synchronization in DBpedia. In the absence of any information synchronization, each country would construct its own datasets and manage it from its users. Moreover the cooperation across the various countries is adversely affected.
