try both dx modes (dx7 and dx8),the switching utility is in the folder where you have extracted the driver.

Yep... its more game itself... strange engine... procedures of displaying text... dunno... Originally this game is Jap/Kor, maybe they something messed up when porting to Eng... I know there are similar problems on some other cards... Maybe they will remove this bug in future, maybe not... I was just wondering is there any way to patch it somehow...

Not impossible here.
I read in their Q/A that they recommended to install the eastern language pack. Some people did it but the problem was always here (?).

Well, it sounds that the game engine is proprietary and perhaps it was written in korean in first.
So that doesn't make things easier probably.
