Langenscheidt Pocket Dictionary Korean: Korean-English/English-Korean (Langenscheidt Pocket Dictionaries)

Warning: Poorly Designed Korean-English Half
I've enjoyed Langenscheidt dictionaries for other languages, but this one missed the mark. I ordered it back in December without any notice available for how it is layed out. The Korean-English half of the dictionary is romanized and ordered alphabetically according to English, NOT alphabetically according to Korean alphabet, which makes it fairly difficult to use efficiently. If you can already read Korean, find something else. I should've just returned it while I had the chance.

Very disappointed that this is in romanisation order
When will writers of dictionaries and Korean Language reference books realise that for learners of Korean, romanisation is about as useful as a chocolate teapot? I bought this because Langenscheidt dictionaries are usually really good, but I am so disappointed with the Korean section which is in romanisation order making it difficult to look up any words. I have yet to find a really good, comprehensive Korean-English English-Korean dictionary. Sadly, this wasn’t it.
