Depending on whether you can find the template online, doing this is much cheaper than buying a keyboard cover with foreign alphabets for sure. If you’re not into Korean, I’m sure this method works for any other language. If, however, you are quite anal about it, you can order a Korean keyboard cover online but you should be willing to pay up for shipping as most keyboard covers and keyboards are shipped from Korea. I do like the fact that I put in a bit of effort to do some DIY because it was quite therapeutic and it helped me appreciate the fact that I can now type in Korean on my Mac. I think the aesthetics isn’t as important as functionality – mine looks decent but of course, it’s not the best looking cover.

She created a template according to a Mac keyboard, and after looking at it, I had a lightbulb moment. I have been following her on YouTube but never bothered to read her blog.

I was looking to buy a Korean keyboard cover online but the ones I found were too expensive. So for months, I would only use my phone to type hangul. When I went to Korea earlier this year in May, I wanted to get a Korean keyboard but somehow along the way, I couldn’t find a suitable one and stupid ol’ me didn’t think to get the keyboard cover from the Apple store in Seoul. To cut a long story short, I learned the alphabets and am now able to read hangul, albeit my Korean is still shitty. But low and behold, I met Jae and so I finally found a purpose for learning Korean. From food to makeup to beauty products to the language. Anyway, I have been wanting to learn Korean for a while but put it off mainly because I didn’t know when I was ever going to speak Korean. As most of you know (or maybe you don’t, but who is even checking) I have had a slight obsession with Korean things.
