There are lots of good Korean Input Methods for Android phones and tablets, but most Google TV and AOSP products do not have Korean IME in default. And most phone and tablet version of IMEs have a trouble to work on the Google TV and AOSP products with or without H/W Keyboard.
So I made this IME for those Google TV and AOSP products especially with H/W keyboard.
This IME supports software keyboard also so can be used on phone or tablet, but it supports just simple functions only and I never plan to update or upgrade it unless it has any fatal error.
I made this IME based on "SoftKeyboard" sample in Android SDK, and shared my source here.

the Korean/English toggle key on H/W keyboard is "SHIFT+SPACE".
If you are using any Korean layout keyboard, the "Korean/English" key on the keyboard should work also.
Just like other input methods, you should enable it after install and set it as default input method to use in Settings.
Tested on NSZ-GS7 (Sony Google TV Settop), SGH-I317 (Galaxy Note 2), SGH-i717 (Galaxy Note)
Thanks to Wonseok Lee for testing.
