Not able to type Hangul letters

  • 772

I would like to occasionally type some hangul letters by pressing SUPER+SPACE and select "Korean" input. But I am not able to make it work yet on Ubuntu 22.04. When I press SUPER+SPACE I can choose between korean and norwegian:

if I choose "ko" (korean) and start typing in e.g. gedit I only get american characters. How can I get the hangul letters?

The "Keyboard" settings page shows the following:

The "Region & Language" settings show:

Edit:

I discovered another settings dialog only available through the shell command "ibus-setup":

Here, I added "Korean-Hangul" from the "Input Method" tab:

Clicking the "Preferences" button in the dialog gives me a new "IBusHangul Setup" dialog:

Here, I added a new toggle key "CTRL+SPACE" and also checked the box "Start in Hangul mode". After applying these changes and logging out and in again, still it does not work.

    • Install the Hangul IBus package:

      sudo apt install ibus-hangul

    • Log out and log in again

    • Add Korean (Hangul) to your input sources (you can as well remove the pure Korean layout from your list)

    • Enjoy!
