Hi, Hans:
Great work! One comment: Line 3 and 4, the second paragraph, the line is too stretched, in fact you can break a Korean word anywhere you want, and no hyphenation is needed.
this version inserts a penalty5 and glue0
The result has - too wide space between Korean char(including Chinese char) and fullstop. - too wide space between Korean char(including Chinese char) and comma. - too wide space between Korean char(including Chinese char) and opening parenthesis. - too wide space between closing parenthesis and Korean char(including Chinese char). - too wide space between opening parenthesis and Korean char(including Chinese char) - too wide space between Korean char(including Chinese char) and closing parenthesis. Korean typesetting is somewhat different from Chinese or Japanese typesetting. It has inter-word spaces (ie. glue). So inter-word spaces, fullstops, commas, and parentheses should be treated as the same as in Latin typesetting, except allowing line break 1. between Korean char and opening parentheses 2. between closing parenthesis and Korean char. In these cases, glue with big plus or minus stretch is not desirable. Dohyun Kim
