The Korean alphabet is known as “Hangul” in South Korea and “Chosŏn’gŭl” in North Korea. It was developed in the 15th century by King Sejong the Great and his scholars during the Joseon dynasty.
Hangul was completed between 1443 and 1444 and was officially introduced in 1446 through a document titled “Hunminjeongeum” (“The Correct Sounds for Instructing the People”).
This alphabet was designed to be easily learned, allowing common people—rather than only the elite who were trained in Chinese characters (hanja)—to read and write.
