This seem to be because running dosfsck on FAT32 patition when ubuntu boots up.
But dosfsck has problem of multibyte characters - see #49217.

Ubuntu installer writes /etc/fstab as follows:
# /dev/sda1
UUID=3F19-1E0C /windows vfat utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0 1

To avoid running dosfsck on FAT32, this should be as follws:
# /dev/sda1
UUID=3F19-1E0C /windows vfat utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0 0

I'm not sure this solution is harmful or not for other languages, but parhaps it is no need to run fsck on windows patition.
