I can confirm that the p7zip package does not completely solve the problem in the following usage scenario:

Several files, each with a korean filename(presumably with euc-kr or cp949 encoding) compressed in a windows environment to .zip.
Fileroller shows invalid filenames when opening the archive.

without the 7-zip package(p7zip-full): the filenames appear as invalid, including various illegal characters, which makes it impossible even to extract the files

with the 7-zip package: the filenames appear as invalid(but different from above), but is extractable. Although I cannot say with certainty, the invalid filenames appear as something one would expect when reading a korean webpage whilst selecting the wrong encoding scheme(ie. western-1252) in the browser

I have not evaluated a UTF-8 usage case.
