I have the following options set at the database, table, and field level: {charset: 'utf8', collate: 'utf8_general_ci'}.\r\n\r\nMy test string to be inserted uses 3 types of apostrophes: U+0027, U+2018, U+2019. These characters look fine in both my local text editor and my terminal.\r\n\r\nBut when I try inserting them into a Postgres database string field using sequelize, the characters all get converted to U+2019.\r\n\r\nWhat am I doing wrong?"}}
