Java Programming

I currently have a database in mysql that stores chinese characters among other things, the field of the particular column that stores the chinese characters are encoded using utf-8. Everything is sound when I insert new rows direct using mysql, when I view the values in the table, all characters are returned as they should be. However, when I insert values to the table using java.sql a lot of garble is return instead.

Here is an example of the output returned when the values were inputted using a java program:

Here is some results returned that were inputted in mysql and what the output should have looked like:

Another problem I am having (possibly the same problem) is that using the values inputted using mysql, and using a java program to output the values in the terminal returns question marks in place of where the Chinese characters/special characters should be:

Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is?

Thanks in advanced!
