Try adding cjk to your USE flags and doing an emerge -N.  I don't remember 
if there was an additional package I had to emerge as well, but the cjk flag 
adds support for the Chinese Japanese Korean font sets.  I just did this 
myself a few weeks ago.  (Don't really know why I bothered though, since I 
can't actually READ Kanji - but I suppose it looks cool.)

If you just want to display the chinese characters, it should be easy.
Just emerge some chinese font package, for example, arphicfont. Add the
font path into your xorg.conf file. I suppose mozilla should be able to
automatically detect the chinese characters and choose suitable fonts to
display it. If not, try set specific font for simplified chinese in
edit--preference--font.

Quote in my /etc/fonts/fonts.conf

familyKochi Mincho/family  -- Japanese fonts
familyAR PL SungtiL GB/family -- Chinese
familyAR PL Mingti2L Big5/family -- Chinese
familyMS 明朝/family -- Maybe Chinese or Japanese
familyBaekmuk Batang/family -- Korean
familyFreeSerif/family -- As I know, this font has many language 
support.


In your screenshot, Korean character seems to be fine. Maybe 'Baekmuk 
Batang' show that character.
