Here is a copy-paste from 8.1 release notes:
==================================================================
Some users are having problems loading UTF-8 data into 8.1.X. This is
because previous versions allowed invalid UTF-8 byte sequences to be
entered into the database, and this release properly accepts only valid
UTF-8 sequences. One way to correct a dumpfile is to run the command
iconv -c -f UTF-8 -t UTF-8 -o cleanfile.sql dumpfile.sql. The -c option
removes invalid character sequences. A diff of the two files will show
the sequences that are invalid. iconv reads the entire input file into
memory so it might be necessary to use split to break up the dump into
multiple smaller files for processing.
==================================================================
This is also valid for your problem.
