The Needs

Hangul, the Korean alphabet, was created by King Sejong in 1443. The King Sejong Institute in New York is supported and designated by the Korean government.

Hangul is really easy to learn. You can learn it in an hour or two. All characters are made of straight lines or circles. Furthermore, Korean pronunciation is phonetically consistent, unlike English. Therefore, spelling and pronunciation are systematic. Through this infographic poster, students in the institution or even people who are not in the course can learn to read Hangul correctly
