Katalon Recorder does not recognize French special characters

I am trying to run a test case where I need to test French text and compare against a web page. I am able to collect the information in variables, but when I inspect the data on log, the special characters are rendered like ‘?’, all of them. See screenshot. When I run the test case, it fails because of that. The English version of the test case runs without problems. Is there an option in Katalon Recorder to make it support this type of characters. For reference, I am running Katalon Recorder on Chrome on a Win 7 PC.
