Can someone tell me how to flash or install Korean unicode or fonts? I have a PRS-650
Thanks

I know this doesn't directly answer your question, but if you make a PDF with Korean fonts, your Sony reader will be able to read it. I've copied Korean documents on the latest MS Word program and saved them as PDFs, then put it on the E-reader and had no trouble.

Just trying to be helpful,

Can you do it by creating epubs with custom fonts? There are lots of instructions how to do it here. Not sure if it will work for you.

I'm using the 350 firmware from this blog site: http://blog.naver.com/newcape
They have a version for the 650 and 950.
It's based on the boroda firmware.

On second thought, I'm not sure the firmware works for reading epubs in Korean.
It gives you the ability to select Korean under Languages, but that only seems to work for the system menu.
I've had no luck getting the attached epub to work. The text shows up as a bunch of question marks.
