When creating a map or searching for friends in the main menu, a problem occurs where only English input works when attempting to input East Asian languages using the IME, such as Korean, Japanese, or Chinese. This is particularly inconvenient as users frequently use languages other than English when creating maps.

Can confirm with Microsoft Bopomofo IME.
In the world creation screen, input mode is keep switching to English.
In other main menu screens (world edit screen, singleplayer world list, etc.) IME works fine.
I think this issue is a duplicate of MC-307109. In my comment on MC-307109, I provided a workaround: first click any random button (such as the game mode button), then click the text box again, and you'll be able to input CJK characters. The exact comment I left was: Every time I click Create New World, I cannot switch to the Chinese mode of Microsoft Pinyin input method unless I click a random button first and then click the text box again.
