Introduction
Korean is the official language of both North and 
South Korea. It’s also spoken widely in neighboring 
Yanbian, China. Worldwide, Korean is spoken 
by some 78 million people. Korean has several 
dialects, of which two are standard: Seoul, spoken 
in South Korea, and P'yongyang, spoken in North 
Korea. In addition, there are approximately seven 
regional dialects. All dialects, except that spoken 
on the Jeju Island, are mutually intelligible. This 
course teaches the Seoul dialect of South Korea. 
the korean alphabet
The Korean script, called Hangul, was invented 
in 1443 under the reign of King Sejong. Until then, 
Chinese characters were used by the upper classes, 
and Idu letters, a kind of Chinese-based Korean 
character system, by the populace. The system 
created by King Sejong and his scholars is still in 
use today. 
The Korean alphabet is phonetic. It consists of 
ten vowels, eleven vowel combinations, fourteen 
consonants, and five double consonants. As 
in English, the letters of the Hangul alphabet 
represent individual sounds. Letters that have 
similar sounds also have similar shapes, making 
them easier to learn.

A chart of the Korean alphabet follows. This is 
given for your information only — you will not need 
to refer to the chart to do the Readings, as all the 
instruction is contained on the CD.

the korean syllable
The basic unit of written Korean is the syllable. All 
Korean words can be viewed as blocks of syllables. 
Each syllable block is like a square of a fixed size. 
There are two basic syllable blocks: consonant-
vowel, and consonant-vowel-consonant. The way 
letters are arranged in a syllable block depends 
upon the vowel in the syllable. Vowels can be 
seen as being horizonal, vertical, or a combination 
of both. Korean syllable blocks follow four basic 
rules. Understanding these rules makes it easier to 
recognize letters in a syllable, and thereby to read 
Korean. Here are the rules:
the korean alphabet (continued)

korean
consonant - Vowel syllables
Rule 1: There are nine “vertical vowels” that stand 
upright. They are:
ㅏ	 ㅑ	 ㅓ	 ㅕ	 ㅣ	 ㅐ	 ㅒ	 ㅔ	 ㅖ
A vertical vowel is written to the right of the 
consonant.
consonant vowel
Example: ㄴ(n) + ㅏ(a) = 나 (na) 
Rule 2: There are five “horizontal vowels.” They 
are: 
	 ㅗ	 ㅛ	 	ㅜ	 ㅠ	 	ㅡ
Horizontal vowels are written below the consonant.
Consonant
Vowel
Example: ㅎ	(h)	+	ㅗ	(o)	=	호
the korean syllable (continued)

korean
Rule 3: There are seven “combination vowels” 
that have characteristics of both the horizontal and 
vertical vowels. They are: 
	 ㅚ	 ㅟ	 ㅘ	 ㅝ	 ㅙ	 ㅞ	 ㅢ
With these vowels, the initial consonant is written 
in the upper left-hand corner of the imaginary 
block. The vowel then appears both to the right and 
below.
Example: 	ㅇ	(silent) + ㅘ	(wa) = 와
consonant – Vowel – consonant syllables 
Rule 4: With three-character syllables, the 
arrangement of the initial consonant and vowel is the 
same as just shown. The final consonant is simply 
placed below or on the bottom. See the illustrations 
on the next page:

At first, “decoding” these blocks will take some 
practice. Therefore, we recommend that you take 
the Reading Lessons at your own pace, repeating 
each until you feel comfortable proceeding to the 
next. With a little effort, however, you will be 
pleasantly surprised at how quickly you are reading 
Korean -- and at how much fun it can be!
