ABOUT HANGEUL
  • Who Created Hangeul?
    • - Hangeul was created by King Sejong the Great.
    - Before King Sejong created Hangeul, the Korean language could only be spoken, because there was no writing system. Chinese characters were used for written communication, but Chinese characters could only be learned by aristocrats. Therefore, King Sejong created Hangeul so that everyone could learn the language.
    - Hangeul was invented in 1443 and introduced to the public in 1446.
    - Korean is the only language with a writing system about which we know exactly when it began, who created it and why and how it was created.
