Now the Korean typesetting has become almost perfect.
Thanks a lot, Hans.  I really appreciate it.

We have three more things to do, however.

1.  inter_char_stretch_factor = 2.00 seems to be too large value.
I do not think that even Chinese or Japanese would allow that big value.
I suggest 0.50 instead.   Mr Wang, how do you think about that?

2.  Upon tracing output, I get :

..............\*unbatang12ptrmtfrm* 居
..............\penalty 10000
..............\*unbatang12ptrmtfrm* )
..............\penalty 10000 %% this should be deleted.
..............\glue 0.0 plus 6.0
..............\*unbatang12ptrmtfrm* 하

\panalty10000 after closing parenthesis should be deleted,
so that line-breaking can occur at this point.

3.  Line-breaking rule for medieval Korean is a little imperfect.
When input string is "가나", all from Hangul Jamo area, I get :

..............\*unbatang12ptrmtfrm* <U+F017E> % U+1100
..............\*unbatang12ptrmtfrm* <U+F0355> % U+1161
%% \penalty50 should be inserted here
..............\*unbatang12ptrmtfrm* <U+F0180> % U+1102
..............\*unbatang12ptrmtfrm* <U+F0355> % U+1161

As I said in a private email with Hans,
^(OP | LC) allowbreak (LC)
is another typesetting rule for Korean,
where OP stands for Openings and LC for Leading Consonants (U+1100 .. U+115F).
In the above output, as U+1161 is non-LC character,
line-breaking should be allowed between U+1161 and U+1102.
