Korean character input issue
There is an issue typing Korean letters that include trailing consonant(jongseong, "종성")s.
For background information, two to three Korean characters(jaso, "자소") combine to form a single letter, e.g., ㅍ and ㅏ to 파, ㅇ and ㅣ to 이, ㅆ + ㅓ + ㄴ to 썬. In short, a single Korean letter consists of a leading consonant(choseong, "초성"), a medial vowel(jungseong, "중성"), and an optional trailing consonant(jongseoung, "종성").
The issue with Pythonista input is that it does not properly handle trailing consonants:
As can be seen in the above screenshot, trailing consonants are separated("가ㄱ", should be "각").
This essentially makes typing Korean characters impossible. Otherwise Pythonista is a fantastic app; I hope this issue gets fixed soon.
EDIT: While trying other apps, I found out that Code Editor by Panic has the same issue.
