Character sets

[Ligaya Turmelle]

I am running a 4.0.15 database and I need a table to ba able to handle
Japanese, Korean, and English at the least.  How can I get the database to
accept these multiple character sets.  I understand the "default character
set" option but can I set multiple "default character set" options to
multiple character sets (EUC-JP, EUC-KR, and ISO-8859-1) rather then just
one.  (I wish 4.1 was production right now and use UTF8)?

Respectfully,
