Happy Hangeul Day
Reporter: Today is October 9, a special day for Hangeul, the Korean alphabet.
I’m at a Hangeul festival now.
People are enjoying fun activities here.
They look happy and excited.
I’m going to interview three Hangeul lovers.
Reporter: Here is my first question.
Why do you like Hangeul?
Pueng: I like Hangeul because it is easy to learn.
I learned the 24 letters of Hangeul, and I am able to read any Korean word now.
Anna: The shapes of Hangeul look unique and beautiful.
I like the Korean word for Switzerland, “스위스[seu-wi-seu].”
It looks like a soldier between two mountains.
It looks great!
William: I like Hangeul because its history is amazing.
A long time ago, most Koreans couldn’t read or write.
King Sejong felt bad about this, so he created a new alphabet for his people.
Reporter: You all really love Hangeul!
How did you start learning it?
Pueng: I’m a big fan of K-pop songs.
Because I wanted to sing Korean songs, I started learning Hangeul.
Now I can sing many K-pop songs!
Anna: I was interested in using Hangeul in my designs.
So I studied the shapes of Hangeul.
I can make unique patterns for clothes with Hangeul.
William: I wanted to teach the science of Hangeul to my students.
Some letters look like the shape of the mouth and tongue for their sounds.
King Sejong made it that way.
It’s very scientific.
Reporter: Thank you for sharing your stories.
Enjoy this festival!
