Harmony ofㆍㅡ ㅣ
The vowel ㅗ (o)
originates from Heaven
and is pronounced
by rounding the lips.
Its shape harmonizes
the roundness of Heaven (ㆍ) [ʌ]
with the flatness of Earth (ㅡ) (eu).
It resembles the image
of the sun rising above the horizon.
Similarly, the vowel ㅏ(a)
also originates from Heaven,
but it is pronounced
by spreading the lips.
This represents how things
become revealed through Humans,
symbolizing manifestation.
