Description
Korean (한글) input has noticeable delay/lag when typing directly in Claude Code CLI. The IME composition conflicts with Claude Code's terminal input handling, making Korean typing very slow and frustrating.
Environment
- OS: Windows 10 Pro
- Terminal: Windows Terminal
- Claude Code version: latest
Steps to reproduce
- Open Claude Code CLI
- Try typing in Korean (한글) using the standard Korean IME
- Notice significant input delay during character composition
Expected behavior
Korean input should be as responsive as English input.
Current workaround
Copy-paste from an external editor (e.g., Notepad), but this is inconvenient for regular use.
Impact
This affects all Korean-speaking users and likely other CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) IME users as well.
