Today is "Korean Alphabet Day"



Korean alphabet day was made to honor the creation and development of the Korean alphabet(hangul), which was originated by a group of Yi dynasty scholars under direction of the wise king Sejong. The Korean alphabet was ultimately presented to the Korean people in 1446. Koreans are rightfully proud of Hangul and set aside this day to commemorate its beginning and promote its development. Various cultural seminars and concerts are usually held to help celebrate the holiday. It is October 9th.
