You need to install the IME (Input Method Editor) for Korean, and type using
that (use the IE5 Korean IME or the one in the Office 2000 Proofing Tools
Kit). The visual keyboard simply shows the layout, and is not an IME so it
does not combine the Jamos into Hangul by itself.

Hey, that's pretty cool!

But a stupid question: I installed the Korean keyboard, and used to
copy characters to Word. But I didn't get Hangūl blocks, but all
characters just came after each other, just like a Latin or Cyrillic
script. Isn't something trivial I've missed?
