Well I'd just wrote DBIx::Class::UTF8Columns that I needed.

That module forces utf8 flag on column data when get_column().

    package Artist;
    __PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/UTF8Columns Core/);
    __PACKAGE__->utf8_columns(qw/name description/);

    # then belows return strings with utf8 flag
    $artist->name;
    $artist->get_column('description');


Is there other better way to do this ?

Regards.
