can I disable input method in vim normal mode

I normally input code in vim, it's all ascii chars, but sometime I need type chinese, for document and comment.

The input method is chinese at insert mode, and I press <esc>, and then I type some vim command, but this command can't be execute unless I switch input method back to english.

I will never use chinese input method at normal mode, and visual mode. so can I disable input method at these mode?

If I can't, I think it's a big problem.
