I tried to search, but alas.......
I have an ibook G4. I can type on hangul, but I want to key a keyboard with hangul and roman letters on it. How should I go about doing this, and how much does it cost? |

I just bought the stickers at kyobo. They're 2 or 3000 won, and come in black or white. |

I know that's an option. I want to go the full keyboard route if possible. Thanks. |

you can probably get an apple service center to replace the keyboard...but that will probably cost a pretty penny. |

Any USB keyboard will work. The only thing I haven't been able to re-map is the keystroke to change languages. |

Thanks hepcat, and Oigirl
I don't want an external keyboard as I travel a lot with the notebook. I tracked down a place online that sells Apple keyboards in different languages and replace the notebook keyboard. They are $129 US! |

Seems like those $2 stickers might not be such a bad option...
I don't know, though... I taught myself to type in Korean, and it only took about an hour, with a purely English keyboard, no stickers or anything. The hangul keyboard arrangement is far, far easier to learn than the Roman letter keyboard. |

If by remap you mean a keyboard shortcut to switch your keyboard from English to Korean, you have to do that in the system preferences. Under International you choose the set you want, which I'm assuming you've already done. You see the shortcut it gives you, which on mine is Command+Space. If you want to change it, hit the Keyboard Shortcut button right next to that and it takes you to the corresponding section. Click on the command+space so it's highlighted and you can change it, then just perform the keyboard shortcut you want it set as. This will only work if the keyboard shortcut you input is not being otherwise taken up by something else. If that is the case, you'll have to get rid of the other one first or it won't take.
I also used this to fix the annoying and stupid thing apple did a couple of versions ago of making Command+N a new finder window instead of a new folder. I just swapped them out.
