I’m korean and I bet they are just initialisms for searching purposes. When I want to open “safari”, instead of typing the whole word (사파리), I can just type in the initials “ㅅㅍㄹ” and safari will be searched. I can see apple implementing such feature via keywords as korean initials logics are not very useful aside from korea.
