About the Korean English typing converter
Everyone who types Korean knows this. You start to type, look at the screen, and see dkssudgktpdy instead of 안녕하세요. The keyboard was still in English mode. Or the other way round: you wanted "hello" and got ㅗ디ㅣㅐ.
This tool fixes it without typing again. Paste the text and it shows what you meant to write, live as you type. Koreans call this 한영 변환 or 한영타 변환. It knows the standard Korean keyboard (두벌식, 2-set), builds full Hangul syllables from the keys, and takes them apart again for the other direction.
Features
- Both directions — English keys → 한글 and 한글 → English keys
- Auto-detect — it looks at the text and picks the direction by itself
- Full syllables — first consonant, vowel and final, with double finals like ㄳ ㄺ ㅄ (값, 읽다, 뷁)
- Two-key vowels — ㅘ ㅙ ㅚ ㅝ ㅞ ㅟ ㅢ are built from two keys, as on a real keyboard
- Shift letters — ㅃ ㅉ ㄸ ㄲ ㅆ ㅒ ㅖ from Shift + Q W E R T O P
- Live and private — the result changes with every key, and the text never leaves your device
- Copy and Swap — copy the fixed text, or swap it into the box to convert it back

The Korean keyboard (두벌식) key by key
Consonants are on the left hand, vowels on the right hand.
| Key | Q | W | E | R | T | Y | U | I | O | P |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Letter | ㅂ | ㅈ | ㄷ | ㄱ | ㅅ | ㅛ | ㅕ | ㅑ | ㅐ | ㅔ |
| With Shift | ㅃ | ㅉ | ㄸ | ㄲ | ㅆ | ㅛ | ㅕ | ㅑ | ㅒ | ㅖ |
| Key | A | S | D | F | G | H | J | K | L |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Letter | ㅁ | ㄴ | ㅇ | ㄹ | ㅎ | ㅗ | ㅓ | ㅏ | ㅣ |
| Key | Z | X | C | V | B | N | M |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Letter | ㅋ | ㅌ | ㅊ | ㅍ | ㅠ | ㅜ | ㅡ |
Letters made from two keys
| Vowel | Keys | Final | Keys |
|---|---|---|---|
| ㅘ | h k | ㄳ | r t |
| ㅙ | h o | ㄵ | s w |
| ㅚ | h l | ㄶ | s g |
| ㅝ | n j | ㄺ | f r |
| ㅞ | n p | ㄻ | f a |
| ㅟ | n l | ㄼ | f q |
| ㅢ | m l | ㅄ | q t |
The other double finals work the same way: ㄽ = f t, ㄾ = f x, ㄿ = f v, ㅀ = f g.
Frequently asked questions
Why did my Korean come out as English letters?
The language key (한/영) was in English mode. The keyboard sent the English letter on each key. Every Korean letter has its own key, so the letters can be turned back one to one.
Does auto-detect always pick the right direction?
It counts the Hangul and the English letters. If there is more Hangul, it converts to English keys; if there are more English letters, it converts to Hangul. If your text mixes both on purpose, choose the direction yourself with the buttons.
Why does "Hello" come back as "hello"?
On a Korean keyboard, Shift + H gives the same ㅗ as H. So the capital letter is lost when you type in Korean mode. Only Q, W, E, R, T, O and P give a different letter with Shift, and those come back as capitals.
Why does "rt" give ㄱㅅ and not ㄳ?
Without a vowel, the tool keeps the two letters apart, the way people write ㄱㅅ in a chat. Inside a syllable the double final is made: "rkqt" gives 값.
Does it work with the 3-set keyboard (세벌식)?
No. It uses the standard 2-set keyboard (두벌식), which almost every computer and phone in Korea uses.
Is my text sent anywhere?
No. The conversion runs in your browser. Nothing is uploaded or saved.
Good to know
- Numbers, spaces and punctuation stay as they are
- Old Hangul letters and Hanja are not changed
- Text copied from a Mac with split Hangul letters is joined first, so it converts too
