Help UK 4.3 Update Query

Hi, I updated my phone with the UK BTU 4.3 update from SamMobile, my phone is a sim free model. It shows the correct firmware on my phone, being PDA: I9300XXUGMK6, but when I connect to the wonderful??? Kies program it tells me the firmware version is as above but has KOR in brackets after it, does this mean it is Korean, or am I barking up the wrong tree? Kies also tells me that my firmware version is unable to be updated through Kies. I have never rooted my phone and only run genuine Samsung firmware. Phil
