Thank you for the info.  I found what was wrong and fixed
it.  Please try the latest code.

The reason of the bug was that when cyrillic.el (not
cyrillic.elc) was loaded, code-pages.el was also loaded.
But, some characters (incorrect mapping) in this file caused
loading subst-ksc.el which is encoded by euc-kr which is
defined in not-yet-loaded korean.el.  I fixed that incorrect
mapping.

Yes, but modifying utf-translate-cjk-load-tables not to load
the tables will just hide such bugs as above.

In general, preloaded files encoded in utf-8 should not
contain a Unicode character that will be translated in
utf-translate-cjk-mode because such a character may cause
incorrect behaviour when utf-translate-cjk-mode is turned
off.
