Actually, the issue is happening while typing Korean character before press Spacebar that makes the caret position to the end of sentence.

Your screen shot is the same as mine. I mean the caret is positioning to the left of Korean character while it being to the right when typing Latin.


The function about the caret position should be corrected so that it can handle the wide character appropriately.  On android version of Chrome, it works consistently whatever I type. The caret is alway to the right of the letter while typing.
