Hangeul was created by King Sejong the Great. Subsequently, in 1446, Hangeul was presented in published form along with detailed explanatory guidelines. Sejong named the alphabet Hunminjeongeum ("The right voice to teach the people"). This alphabet is now called Hangeul which means "Alphabet Han" or "Great Alphabet". Although it was recommended by the king, not many Joseon scholars would write with Hangeul. Scholars assume that Hangeul is an alphabet

for women (eon-mun) because it's very easy to learn. Scholars and aristocrats, mostly men, still use hanja. Female writers known for works in Hangeul include Shin Saimdang (1504-51), Heo Nanseolheon (1563-89) and Myeongseong (1851-95).
For most of its history, the Korean people wrote in Chinese characters (Hanja). Because the speech languages ​​of the two nations come from different families, Korean cannot be properly expressed in Chinese characters. In Chinese, sentences are marked with particles, while in Korean, the suffix is ​​used to add or modify meaning. Although uncomfortable, the Korean nobility (yangban) continued to strongly support the use of hanja.

King Sejong is a leader and scientist, and a cultural pioneer. Through years of hard work, he researched the basic Korean language unit using his own ability of language and finally succeeded in writing it in the form of a character, Hunminjeongeum.
The writing in Sejong Sillok, volume of Joseon Wangjo Sillok (Babad Joseon) on December 30th 25th year of the Sejong reign, reads:
"This month, the King has created 28 Onmun (speech) characters in person ... Although simple and concise, they are able to produce infinite variations and are called Hunmin Jeongeum. "

Based on "Explanations and Examples of Hunmin Jeongeum" (1446): basic consonant symbols are formed systematically based on the human mouth organ when uttering several types of sounds, while other consonants are formed by adding strokes to the 5 basic shapes.
