This is an OPTIONAL step. After completing step 4 you will still be in the 'Regional and Language' window. From here click the 4th tab on the top labeled 'Administrative'. Clicking this tab will display the following tab.This tab is the MOST IMPORTANT tab if you would like 100% Korean support in all programs installed andor wish to install Korean programs on your computer.

Click on the 'Change system locale..' button.
NOTE: Using this setting can sometimes be frustrating because many software companies look at this setting
and try to install the Korean language version. If you can't read Korean this might hinder your productivity a bit.
You can always change this setting back to English, the install the software again.
After installing you can change this back to Korean so your other programs that require Korean locale still work.

back to topStep 6: Changing to Korean Type Mode
Now your computer can display and type Korean in all programs installed. Open up Office Word, Word Pad, Note Pad to test typing in Korean. With your cursor placed on a new document somewhere on your screenyou will notice a Language Bar.
Click the 'EN English' and then select 'KO Korean (Korea)'. This will change the Language Bar's appearance.

back to topStep 7: Minimizing the Language Bar
You do not need the language bar on the screen at all times to type Korean. In step 9 you will learn some very handy shortcuts that allows you to keep the Language Bar hidden.
To minimize the language bar right click on the far left portion of the language bar and click 'Minimize'.
This will put the Language Bar near the clock in the Windows 7 task bar. From there you can easily change your input language.

Step 8C: Completing a Korean Character when typing
Once you are in the correct input mode in your document, let's type a practice word.br /> Let's type the Korean word 하다. Even though this is 'H-A-D-A' this is NOT how you will type it. Instead you will type the keys 'G-K-E-K'.

An incomplete character will be underlined. You do NOT have to do anything to complete a character. If you don't have any typos the character will complete automatically as you type. If you hit space the character will complete automatically.

back to topStep 8D: Typing full sentences in Korean
You do not have to choose the correct hangul from a list when typing Korean. As long as you keep typing and don't have any typos the proper hangul will display. If it doesn't display properly.. you have made a mistake in your Korean.

Step 9: Korean Language Bar shortcuts
A big pet peeve of mine is watching people change the language bar settings by manually clicking on them.
It's time consuming if you are switching back and forth a lot.
You can easily switch language options and even input methods with the following short cuts.

1. Change to another language on the fly.
ALT + SHIFT
If you have other languages installed, this will cycle through each on.

2. Change input type (Hangul, English)
ALT Key
NOTE: Only the RIGHT side ALT key works to change the input type.
This is handy if you are already in Korean input mode and want to switch back and forth between typing English and Korean.

HAVE FUN TYPING KOREAN!
