       The conversions are performed as like following descriptions.

Wansung to Johap and Johap to Wansung
       For  the  conversion  between  Wansung  which is in Korean EUC representation of KS C 5601-1992 and also known as Completion code and Johap
       which is described at KS C 5601-1992 Annex 3: Supplementary Code System (2 Byte Johap Code System) and also known as Combination code,  all
       characters  can	be  mapped  if	conversion is from Wansung to Johap.  However, from Johap to Wansung conversion, certain Hangul characters
       which are not in KS C 5601-1992 precompsed character set will not be able to mapped. Such characters will be mapped into underscore charac-
       ter  (octal  value  of 137) of KS C 5636.  In case of Hanja and special symbol characters, they will follow the mapping rules of Table 3 of
       Annex 3 of KS C 5601-1992.

Wansung to Packed and Packed to Wansung
       For the conversion between Wansung and Packed which is described at KS C 5601-1987 Annex 3: Supplementary Code System (2  Byte  Johap  Code
       System),  all  characters except Hanja and special symbol characters can be mapped if conversion is from Wansung to Packed.  Such Hanja and
       special symbol characters will be mapped into underscore character (octal value 137) of KS C 5636.  From Packed to Wansung conversion, cer-
       tain  Hangul  chracters will not be able to mapped since not every Hangul Packed code is representable in Wansung.  Such characters will be
       mapped into underscore character of KS C 5636.

Wansung to N-Byte and N-Byte to Wansung
       For the conversion between Wansung and N-Byte which is described at KS C 5601-1992 Annex 4: 7 Bit Hangul  Alphabet  codes,  all	characters
       except  Hanja and special symbol characters can be mapped.  Such Hanja and special symbol characters will be mapped into underscore charac-
       ter (octal value 137) of KS C 5636.

Wansung to ISO-2022-KR and ISO-2022-KR to Wansung
       For the conversion between Wansung and ISO-2022-KR which is described at RFC 1557: Korean Character Encoding  for  Internet  Messages,  all
       characters can be mapped.
