[v] Initially raised as discussion
How to use other encoding of env file that is different from os encoding? #2006 - gbk codec error. GBK is chinese character encoding

my env file contained non-ascii comment (wrote korean).

my code
config = Config(".env")

Error message:

File "C:\proj\fastapi-table\venv\lib\site-packages\starlette\config.py", line 63, in init
self.file_values = self._read_file(env_file)
File "C:\proj\fastapi-table\venv\lib\site-packages\starlette\config.py", line 122, in _read_file
for line in input_file.readlines():
UnicodeDecodeError: 'cp949' codec can't decode byte 0xed in position 272: illegal multibyte sequence

cp949 codec is korean encoding in Windows OS

config.py _read_file function

line 121 with open(file_name) as input_file:

The Open file option should be modified to UTF-8 encoding.
