Cannot find emoji keyboard in iWatch after update to WatchOS 8.0

After the recent update to watch OS 8.0, I cannot find emoji keyboard anymore in my iWatch. I have checked the Language & Region in the watch setting but I do not see "emoji" keyboard there. The setting is a mirror to my iPhone and iPhone is working fine with emoji keyboard in it. Please comment and advise. Thank you.

Apple Watch S7 Korean Keyboard support I set up Apple Watch s7 language same as my iPhone. Languages are English and Korean. But I noticed that Apple Watch doesn't support Korean keyboard when I tried to text on iMessage or KakaoTalk from Apple Watch. and every time I switch to Korean keyboard, it shows " Apple Watch keyboard finish entering text on your iOS device" and I have to type from my phone. But I came across that I couldn't fully understand. Apple Watch S7 released in Korea as well. that means Apple Watch should support Korean keyboard for Korean right? or is my Apple Watch something wrong ? I am wondering how other people Apple Watch S7 does for Korean keyboard.

Apple Watch no keyboard in list on messages When we swipe up on a text message Scribble is the only option. On all of other other watched it also has keyboard. I see lots of people with this problem but no solution. Everyone sems to get the same messaging options that includes: If you don’t see the keyboard, swipe up from the bottom, then tap the Keyboard button. and it doesn't work there is no keyboard but only on this one watch. Everyone else in the family has keyboard.
