| Korean People and Language |
The Korean language, like Hungarian, Turkish, Mongolian, and Finnish, belongs to the Ural-Altaic language group. Hangeul, the Korean alphabet, is composed of 10 vowels and 14 consonants. King Sejong the great and his scholars created this writing system in 1443 because, while they spoke a different language from chinese or Japanese, Koreans were relying on chinese characters to study, teach, and communicate. Today the Hangeul writing systems is used by 70 million South and North Koreans, as well as five million overseas Koreans. This information follows the goverment’s revised Romanization System for Hangeul which was adopted in July 2000.
