Temporary fix:

WARNING: THIS SOLUTION TAMPERS WITH THE REGISTRY, USE AT OWN RISK (and you need to download a suspicious-looking zip file)

  1. Open the osu! package
  2. Open wineskin.app
  3. Advanced -> Tools -> run regedit
  4. Go to the directory HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontSubstitutes
  5. Change the values of MS Shell Dlg and MS Shell Dlg2 to NanumGothic
  6. Delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontLink
  7. Download this: http://puu.sh/kPW6B/11c821578e.7z Inside this 7z file, there is a registry file named WineKor_Nanum2.reg.
  8. Import the file with the "import registry file" option.
  9. There should now be a new FontLink folder.
  10. Done. If you start up osu! now, you should be able to see the languages that previously appeared as boxes.

Is NanumGothic packaged with wine? Also it seems to be a Korean specific font; does this solution work for Chinese/Japanese?

Sorry about the late response. Do note that this isn't a solution I came up with and I am not very knowledgeable in this topic, so I can't tell you much.

It doesn't seem to be, and it seems to display Chinese and Japanese as well.

Not sure if I'm reviving something too old... but I thought I'd give my 2 cents - simply obtaining Meiryo from a Windows 7 installation and installing it into Wine worked for me.

It fixes Korean and Traditional Chinese, but not Simplified.
