Did you have a look at wxPython? (http://www.wxpython.org)
It's the best cross platform GUI toolkit for Python that I know of;  
it uses native controls on every platform (Mac, Win, GTK) and is able  
to handle Unicode chars, also Japanese. (Maybe there are issues with  
some special controls.)
I don't know what else is needed for CJK, but I guess the input  
method is a matter of the OS, not of your app.
