I have been told repeatedly that it is best to get a Korean to check your translations... we have all experienced this as well with Chinese and Japanese. Korean is supposed to be even trickier!
They'll probably have a "whois" Hall-of-Shame (with many of us starring in it) for all the goofy regs we have had in these languages.

Just to show how crappy Google is for Korean (they should actually remove Korean), i just registered 사운드.com (KR OVT: 28596)
사운드 is 'sound', the sound in 'sound card', Google translates '사운드' as 'Future of the company tu'!

The funny thing is that I recognize that translation 'the future of company'... I think that big G must return that quite often.
If they cant get this working at a minimal level, you can forget about their purported goal of beating the Turing Test anytime soon.

Sal, the list you posted, did you check availablity? I'm pretty sure that most of the better Korean idn .coms are registered, even if their japanese and chinese counterpart are available.
There are like several times more registered Korean idns than Japanese. To see how sophisticated Korean are for idns, even 日本.com is registered by a Korean.
Korea is moving very fast, they are beating the Japanese and Americans in almost every industry in Asia, from electronics to tv programs (korean films/television outranks Hollywood in East Asia). The combination of chinese entreprenuership/culture and japanese-like discipline is simply too invincible.

I didn't check the entire list, but the terms I was interested in were already taken long ago.
I've mostly given up with Korean.
Here's a resource I used to use... learn-korean.com

Yes, it is true..
Other idea...
IDNs will be used widely after 1-3 years...Japan will be catching up IT tech. and internet uses in those years or little more....

I am so sorry... I can not comment ur domains, because I have no idea about Latin domains...
I have only 50 IDNs...and when I register one IDN, I research at least 2-3 days..
It is been registering IDNs almost 6 years... I do not see any hurry to reg my new IDN because they have been there unregistered for a time being...
I concentrate drops more.
15-17th of May will be a annual event of IDNs drops....around 22th of July.. and around 29th of Sep.....too.
