View Korean On The Kobo Touch

After a while of messing with my kobo, I realized I couldn't see Korean anywhere on the system(Unless you're looking at a book and it is a PDF). If you would like to know how to view Korean, then follow these steps
  • Plug in your Kobo
  • Open the Kobo's folder on your computer
  • Open the "fonts" folder in the Kobo folder(If non-existent, create a folder named exactly, even case, "fonts")
  • Go to https://github.com/adobe-fonts/sourc...ses/tag/1.001R and click "Source code (zip)" in the downloads section
  • Wait for it to download and unzip the folder
  • Open the folder you just unzipped then go to "SubsetOTF" then "KR"
  • Copy the font "SourceHanSansKR-Regular.otf" to the fonts folder in your Kobo folder
  • Eject the Kobo and open an ePub book
  • Tap on the centre of the screen, and then tap the button that looks like two "A"s
  • Tap the "Font Face" dropdown, then go down to the bottom and select the "Source Hans Sans KR Regular" font
  • Wait for the font to load itself
  • Enjoy reading Korean!
Sorry for the super detailed post but I didn't want people getting lost easily

Cheers!
