Punycode converter

한글.com becomes an address that starts with xn--, and that address turns back into Hangul.

Result

Why this exists

The address bar shows Hangul, while DNS and some setup screens want the punycode that starts with xn--.

The conversion ends on this device. The address never goes to the Kitharu server.

  1. 01How to use it

    Put one address on each line. A full URL is fine.

    A result that starts with xn-- is punycode. Hangul means it was turned back.

  2. 02What you get

    한글.com becomes xn--bj0bj06e.com.

    An xn-- address turns back into the Hangul domain.

    Entered한글.com

    Punycode xn--bj0bj06e.com
  3. 03Worth knowing

    Letters are lowercased. Hangul is composed into syllables before it is converted.

    If a hidden control character is present, that line stays as typed and is not turned back.
