<H2>Notes and corrections for HANGUL.TXT</H2>
<P>October 13, 2005</P>
<P>A. The decomposition mappings in UnicodeData-1.1.5.txt are
correct.<BR>
B. The composed Hangul syllables (Unicode 2.0 characters) derived from
the UnicodeData-1.1.5.txt decomposition mapping do not match the
Unicode 2.0 characters mapped to the corresponding Unicode 1.0/1.1
characters in HANGUL.TXT in all cases.<BR>
C. In particular, the mappings given for the Unicode 1.0/1.1 characters in rows
1747, 1750, 1751, 5284, 5285, 9067, 9068, 9737, 9877, 9888 and 9916 of
HANGUL.TXT are incorrect:</P>
<P><PRE>Row 1747 Cols.5 & 6 : "- 48B3" should be "35AA 35AA" (from row 1751)
Row 1750 Cols.5 & 6 : "- 48B4" should be "- 48B3" (from row 1747)
Row 1751 Cols.5 & 6 : "- 35AA" should be "- 48B4" (from row 1750)
Row 5284 Cols.5 & 6 : "- 384E" should be "- 40BC" (from row 5285)
Row 5285 Cols.5 & 6 : "- 40BC" should be "384E 384E" (from row 5284)
Row 9067 Cols.5 & 6 : "- 436C" should be "- -" (from row 9068)
Row 9068 Cols.5 & 6 : "- -" should be "- 436C" (from row 9067)
Row 9737 Cols.5 & 6 : "- -" should be "- 43DA" (from row 9877)
Row 9877 Cols.5 & 6 : "- 43DA" should be "- -" (from row 9737)
Row 9888 Cols.5 & 6 : "- 43FB" should be "- -" (from row 9916)
Row 9916 Cols.5 & 6 : "- -" should be "- 43FB" (from row 9888)</PRE>
<P></P>
<P>Consequently these rows should be amended to :</P>

<P>Because HANGUL.TXT is provided primarily for archival purposes, the data file itself
will not be corrected. Extreme care should be taken when attempting to map
any Korean data to Unicode 1.0 or Unicode 1.1 values.</P>
