When Xu Jie came across a book introducing Esperanto while browsing in his university library years ago, he had no idea of the exciting journey that lay ahead.
Hangul (Korean writing system) wasn't a training alphabet, it was a replacement for chinese characters which used to be used to represent written korean iirc. There was a lot of classism/sexism about it back in the 1400s when it was rolled out lol, nobility insisted on continuing to use Chinese characters for a long time.
There are already some places in China (specifically the province that borders Korea) that uses some Hangul as well although I think that may be for a different dialect. It really is an ideal alphabet, I've been torn between trying to learn mandarin because it's more useful and Korean because the alphabet is way easier and I'm exposed to it more
It's extra cool for watching Korean musical performances and stuff (esp rap) even if you don't know any Korean cause you can visually see all the rhymes when there's subtitles
No problem, I'm glad that time my adderall kicked in when i landed on the Wikipedia page for Hangul and spent hours reading about it actually came in handy lol

Thanks for correcting me, it's a really awesome language.
