Yes some Korean character are using code points below 32767 (e.g. Hangul
Compatibility Jamo).

You are asking for the Unicode code charts :) You'll them at www.unicode.org
(note that hex values are more popular than decimal values).

I honestly know very little about Korean. Instead of relying on the IME to
enter Korean. you should do it via cut and paste by creating a small html
page with using the NCR of the characters you want to type (e.g.
"<html><body>&#xxxxx;&#xxxxx;&#xxxxx;</body></html>") or simply enter the
NCR by hand in your form on the server side that exactly as if you were
typing the Korean character.

You can also find sample page on the web and do some cut and paste e.g.
http://www.hclrss.demon.co.uk/unicode/hangul_syllables.html
http://www.hclrss.demon.co.uk/unicode/hangul_compatibility_jamo.html
etc.

Also if Yoshito Umaoka guess is correct and that you API is indeed limited
to a short. You'll then be limited to value up to 65535. Characters above
that range are likely to be broken into a pair of surrogates characters.

Cheers,
Thierry.
