There are tons of new features rumored for Windows Phone Mango update and with those will also come support for new languages including Asian and according to recent talks, Microsoft is planning on opening the Korean Windows Phone Marketplace sometime in August this year.

Even though there are rumors that current Windows Phone hardware is limited to the languages it shipped with, the Marketplace is said to open in the land of LG and Samsung sometime this August. This means that users will be able to purchase content from the Marketplace and developers will be able to submit their applications before the opening. Being limited to certain regions and languages was a serious limitation to the popularity of Windows Phone 7 but with Asian support and Marketplace openings in more and more countries the platform can gain more and more fans worldwide.
