I don't know if this is the best option out there, but this is working for me and I'm satisfied. Here's what I did:
Changing iBus to imhangul
Basically it boils down to: install Korean language, remove iBus, install im-switch, activate hangul- In the Language Support (or whatever it's called for you) settings, I installed the Korean language pack.
- Using Synaptic Package Manager, I searched for, and removed, all entries relating to iBus.
- Using Synaptic, I installed the packages im-switch and imhangul which will ask for the removal of im-config and the language config settings
Yes, this will remove the Language Support entry from the System Preferences Menu, but if you already installed Korean langauge pack, you won't need it. You can always manually re-install it later too. - Log out and log in (or restart)
- To access the settings, run im-switch in a terminal. A settings dialog will pop up asking to choose your input method. I chose imhangul
- Log in and log out
- Go to Keyboard Layout Handler
(I no longer have this setting in the System Preferences menu, but it's still present in my toolbar/taskbar/panel) - Under the Keyboard Layouts section, click "+Add", scroll down to Korean, expand the arrow to choose "Korean 101/104 key Compatible" and enable it. I also removed the entry for English.
Now I can type in English or switch to Korean by using the 한/영 key on my keyboard, which I just did right there. Look I'll do it again 다시 사용하고 있지 wow that was much faster than clicking.
For some ways to configure the settings in imhangul, see my post here.

I hope to switch back to iBus at some point, but I think I'll wait for the 14.04 release. Hopefully it will be sorted by then.
