Abstraction In learning a new language we should know first its history.

The Korean Alphabet (Hangul) is the native script of Korea,

invented by King Sejong the Great in 1443, to represent
spoken languages of Korean and its neighbours for
uneducated people. Initially Hangul was called
“Hunminjeongeum” (right sound to teach people) or
“Jeongem” in short. It became the official Korean script in
1894. Right after the Korean independence in 1945, Hangul
gained the official title.

The Korean alphabet is a featural alphabet written in morpho-

syllabic blocks, and was designed for both Korean and
Chinese languages, though the letters specific to Chines are
now obsolete. Each block consists of at least one consonant
letter and one vowel letter. When promulgated, the blocks
reflected the morphology of Korean, but for most of the
fifteenth century they were organized into syllables. In the
twentieth century the morpho-syllabic tradition was revived.
The blocks were traditionally written in vertical columns from
top to bottom, although they are now commonly written in
horizontal rows from left to right.

Here are the Components of Korean Alphabets:

1. 모음과 자음 Vowels and consonants

자음 ㄱ ㄴ ㄷ ㄹ ㅁ ㅂ ㅅ ㅇ ㅈ ㅎ
consonants ㅋ ㅌ ㅍ ㅊ
ㄲ ㄸ ㅃ ㅆ ㅉ
모음 ㅏ ㅓ ㅗ ㅜ ㅡ ㅣ ㅔ ㅐ
vowels ㅚ ㅟ
ㅑ ㅕ ㅛ ㅠ ㅢ ㅖ ㅒ
ㅘ ㅝ ㅞ ㅙ

2. 한국어 음절 구성 Korean syllables

Korean syllables are made in 4 different manners.
(1) 모음 (vowel) ex) 아, 오
(2) 자음 + 모음(consonant + vowel) ex) 나, 코
(3) 모음 + 자음(vowel + consonant) ex) 안, 운
(4) 자음 + 모음 + 자음(consonant + vowel +
consonant) ex) 강, 곰

Fun facts:
The 21 vowels in Hangeul are divided into 10 basic vowels
and 11 double vowels.
 기본 모음 Basic vowels
ㅏa ㅑ ja
ㅓ^ ㅕ Jeo
 ㅗo ㅛ jo
ㅜu ㅠ ju
ㅡ ui ㅣ i

 이중모음 Double vowels

ㅐ e ㅒ ye
