Cover & Intro

Note
    The Hunminjeongeum Haeryebon 훈민정음 해례본 is the original
    explanatory edition of Hunminjeongeum or Hangul, the Korean alphabet,
    created by King Sejong the Great in 1443. This book is its English
    translation with additional explanations and newly added illustrations by
    Jo, Sanku. The original Hangul characters from the Haeryebon are
    preserved as they are.
    For explanations of new Hangul terms such as “Hasattang”(하사땅)“,
    Balk-I-Eo” (밝이어), "Daum" (다움), and the newly introduced initial
    sound names, please refer to the "Guide Notice" at the beginning of the
    appendix.
