Explanation 1 · Principles of Creation

Root letters ㆍㅡ ㅣ

    The eleven medial vowels
    were modeled after the images
    of Heaven, Earth, and Human,
    but they also contain
    delicate and profound meanings
    that are not easily recognizable at first glance.

    The vowel ㆍ (Hanul-A [ʌ])
    is modeled after Heaven,
    representing the deepest sound.

    Its round shape resembles a bullet,
    symbolizing its profound nature.

    The vowel ㅡ (eu)
    is neither deep nor shallow,
    embodying a balanced state.

    Its flat shape reflects the form of Earth,
    emphasizing stability.
