Korean Language

The writing system for the Korean language, called Hangul, was made by King Sejong and his experts in the 15th century. It is one of a kind and very innovative. Hangul was made to be easy and logical, unlike many other writing systems. This means that anyone can use it, no matter what their social level is. Its alphabet is made up of 10 vowels and 14 consonants that work together to make syllabic blocks that represent the sounds that people say in Korean.

The Korean language is very important to Korean culture because it shows the country's past, values, and way of life. As Korean pop culture continues to spread around the world, so does interest in learning the language. Millions of people around the world are learning Hangul to get a better understanding of Korean media, music, and culture.
