I know how to switch the fonts, to switch the input language, all that. BUT - when my gf uses MS-Word to type Korean, it keeps putting these
huge spaces between the words.

WTF?

Anyone else having similar issues?

Hmmm... kinda found a way around it... click on Format -> Font (command-D) then hit the "character spacing" button. In the "spacing" pull-down menu, hit "condensed", and jack the number down to 6 pts.

This renders the space bar completely useless, though, so you have to hit the TAB key in order to put a space between the words.
