Research direction

Reproduce the issue in the iOS app by pasting 세탁소에서 repeatedly into a note until it spans lines, then searching for it. Compare the highlighted result with the supplied screenshots; done means Korean text crossing a line break has correct spacing, matching the expected example on iOS 13.6.1 and 14.0.
