Autocomplete with multibyte characters(Korean)?

Autocomplete with multibyte characters(Korean)?

hi I'm trying to apply autocomplete to my rails application.
datasource is remote and my data is in Korean.
I set minLength to 2.
it might not be accurate, but in firefox, it doesn't seem to send request properly.
In other browsers(chrome, ie), they sent ajax request immediately as soon as 2 or more characters were typed
while firefox didn't. It seems to  sent the request after I typed space or alphabets. 
i wonder if it is a browser problem
