    I swapped the code without wanting to UTC to UTC-8-16 of the options for writing and viewing my blog and started to display Asian characters which can not go back and correct. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to return to the default? Thank you very much!

    Did you make the change in Settings/Reading? If so, just go back and change it to what it was.

    Yes. I tried again by the browser and could not, appears only Asian characters

    Does this mean you can't login to change it? If so, then you may need to change it directly in the wp-options table in the database. Do you have access to, and know how to use, phpMyAdmin?

    I believe I can do that. I have to make direct on the server?

    Before you make any changes directly to your database, make a backup: http://codex.wordpress.org/Backing_Up_Your_Database

    I believe figaro is correct; a direct change in the database may be required. If you can login to phpMyAdmin, or have command-line access to the MySQL database, you can try running this query:

    UPDATE wp_options SET option_value='UTF-8' WHERE option_id='36'

    option_id 36 is blog_charset, which is what you're looking for. Good luck!
