luatexko – Typeset Korean with Lua(La)TeX
This is a Lua(La)TeX macro package that supports typesetting Korean documents including Old Hangul texts. As LuaTeX has opened up access to almost all the hidden routines of TeX engine, users can obtain more beautiful outcome using this package rather than other Hangul macros operating on other engines.
LuaTeX version 1.10+ and luaotfload version 2.96+ are required for this package to run.
This package also requires the cjk-ko package for its full functionality.
