I like to order the array, the 한글 is first

An overload of OrderBy takes an IComparer<string> and you can get one of these for a specific culture using the static Create method on StringComparer. Something like this should work:

CultureInfo ci = CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("ko-KR"); 
bool ignoreCase = true; //whether comparison should be case-sensitive
StringComparer comp = StringComparer.Create(ci, ignoreCase);

string[] unordered = //whatever
var ordered = unordered.OrderBy(s => s, comp);
