PD 6505:1982 Guide to the romanization of Korean (BSI mechanical system)
bsi-kor-Kore-Latn-6505-1982 BSI PD 6505:1982, Guide to the romanization of Korean. A mechanical, orthographic system: 14 consonants (the circle is silent initially and ng finally), 14 vowels including /ai/ /ei/ /yai/ /yei/, and the horizontal-stroke vowel rendered w; compound vowels are the plain concatenation of their components' values (\uC640 = oa, \uC65C = uei, \uC758 = wi). Not McCune-Reischauer. Transcribed visually from the scan (no text layer); letter tables and syllable mechanics from sections 2-3 read verbatim.
