FAQ
Q. How is the keystroke count calculated? A. A complete Hangul syllable counts as 2 to 3 keystrokes and other characters as 1, then it is converted to keystrokes per minute.
Q. What happens if I make a typo? A. That character is underlined and factored into your accuracy. Just delete it and retype.
Q. Will my record show up on another device? A. No, the best score is stored only in the browser you are using.
