What happens here is that when you call -[WKWebView loadHTMLString:baseURL:], the string is a UTF-16 one, and thus the document has UTF-16 encoding (which is the right thing to happen, because transport encoding takes precedence over meta charset). And then the JS resource inherits an encoding from the main document.

To fix this, you need to specify subresource encoding explicitly. The best way to do this is via Content-Type response header field.
