Korean-English Keyboard Converter
If you forget to switch your keyboard layout, typing English with the Korean IME on produces garbled Hangul such as "dkssud", and typing Korean with it off produces garbled Latin letters. This tool remaps each keystroke to the layout you meant, converting Korean-typed-as-English back to English and English-typed-as-Korean back to Korean, in either direction.
💡 Examples
How to use
- Paste or type the garbled text produced by the wrong keyboard layout.
- Choose the conversion direction, Korean-to-English or English-to-Korean.
- Copy the corrected text once it reads correctly.
Frequently asked questions
- Why does English typed with Korean IME on turn into Hangul?
- Each English letter sits on the same physical key as a Hangul jamo in the standard 2-beolsik layout, so the keystrokes get interpreted as Korean instead of the English you intended.
- Does this work in both directions?
- Yes. It converts Korean-typed-as-English back to English, and English-typed-as-Korean back to Korean.
