Public bug reported:

From: http://support.openlp.org/issues/1830

Now that I have read the msdn.microsoft.com article "Dividing Lines of
Text in Korean", I don't think there is anything wrong with the way it
currently is. That article says that "some applications allow the user
to choose whether or not to break lines between hangul characters". And
the following list with line break prohibits only has rules for
characters such as different starting ( and ending ) parenthesis and a
very special character A3DC, which never can start or end a line. And
that is all. So what ernest is asking is to add support for "not
breaking lines between hangul characters", e.g "the English way" of
breaking lines. This is mere matter of taste and not a definite mistake
(according to that mistake). Therefore I'll mark this as a feature
request.

Normally getting this would be as simple as adding word-break:keep-all;
CSS property, but unfortunately (due to webkit's bug
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43917) this does not work for
us.

As a workaround it is possible to add a zero-width-no-break-space (ZWNBSP: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-width_non-breaking_space ) between any two non-space characters (or better yet a WORD JOINER character U+2060 as the wiki suggests:
print re.sub(r'(?<=[^ ])(?=[^ ])', '\ufeff', 'hello my dear friend')
