  $string = decode 'skr-2000', $octets;
  $octets = encode 'skr-2000', $string;

  while($line = <>) {
    print encode 'utf8', decode 'skr-2000', $line;
  }

DESCRIPTION

Encode::Korean::SKR_2000 implements an encoding system of Korean based on the transliteration method of South Korean romanization system, officially released on July 7, 2000 by South Korean Ministry of Culture and Tourism (aka. Revised Romanization of Korean)
