    Just as a side note, the standard language codes for Japanese and Korean
    are JA and KO, not JP and KR. The latter are country codes for Japan
    and Korea, which is probably where you got them from. You will want to
    use the standard language codes for all of your subdomains, for
    consistency.

    ISO 639 language codes:
