Not that I have any objections against having no such spacing for Korean
environment, or think more justification is needed, but --

(In reply to DaeHyun Sung from comment #7)

Chinese and Japanese (AFAIK) have zero space between characters by default as
well.  There will be no such spacing in full Japanese (even mixed Kanjis and
Kanas) or Chinese text.  It only happens when you mix Latin characters (a, b,
c, etc.) or Arabic numerals (1, 2, 3, etc.) with Chinese/Japanese text.

The main reason that Chinese/Japanese users prefer such spacing, but Korean
users don't, in my humble opinion, is that Korean text uses spaces to separate
words in a sentence, but Chinese/Japanese text don't.
