A Little help setting up an external MIDI with my MicroKorg please?

Hello,

Last week I bought a MicroKorg Synth but the keys are all messed up, some don't work and some are even broken. I Was trying to connect my Novation Launchkey to the synth via MIDI but i seem to be lacking some hardware. I got a Midi to USB Cable but it doesn't work. I'm using this one --> https://www.amazon.com/TENINYU-Synthesizer-Microphone-Instrument-Converter/dp/B07L8KFYBK/ref=sr_1_14?keywords=midi+to+usb+cable&qid=1577449920&sr=8-14 With this adapter --> https://www.amazon.com/Electop-Female-Print-Adapter-Converter/dp/B014RESWU4/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=usb+b+female+to+usb+a&qid=1577450070&sr=8-6

My question is, is it possible to use the Launchkey to replace the MicroKorg keyboard. Can I use it to control the keyboard via external MIDI (the MicroKorg has MIDI IN/OUT/THRU) and what pieces of hardware do i need?

Thanks in advance and happy holidays.
