While each key represents an alphabet, words are formed from syllables. Syllables are formed by combining 2-4 alphabets into a "squared" syllable, for example:

ㄱ = k
ㅣ = i
ㅁ= m
김 = kim

N9 seems to have support for Korean input but I have no idea whether it would work for Sailfish OS.

Do you guys have any ideas about this? What's needed for creating a more elaborate input mechanism such as Korean? I haven't got much experience with Maemo/MeeGo/Sailfish coding but I'm willing to give it a shot if someone could give a hint where to start.

Final question: is there any way of enabling Android's keyboards in Sailfish OS?

Thank you for reading!
Based on Japanese keyboard posted here, I used custom input handler part to create Korean one.
