If you have an English language keyboard, and you want to type in Korean, it can be a bit tricky. I’ve actually memorized the Korean keyboard, but you may not want to do that. Here’s what you can do: go to control panel, click on keyboard and languages, add the korean language file. Then a language bar will show up, it’s a thin horizontal strip. Click on Korean, which will show up as KO on the language bar. Then click on the arrow pointing downwards on the right side of the bar. You’ll see a list of items. Click on “Soft Keyboard.” Then a layout of the Korean keyboard will appear on screen. Just click on the “X” on the top right hand side if you want the layout to disappear. If it still doesn’t work, I’ll provide the layout below.

a = ㅁ

s = ㄴ

d = ㅇ

f = ㄹ

g = ㅎ

h = ㅗ

i = ㅓ

k = ㅏ

l = ㅣ

Just so you know, you will need the “d” key which looks like this ㅇ in Korean to type words that contain Korean vowels. I’ll post the rest of the Korean keyboard for the next post.
