Dramas to watch in Korean

1. “Itaewon Class” (이태원 클라쓰) Watch it on: Netflix Park Sae-ro-yi, who has just started going to a new high school, intervenes when he notices Jang Geun-won, the wealthy son of his father’s employer, bullying another student. This sets off a wild chain of unforeseen events involving death, prison, a new restaurant opening, and romance. As you might guess from the name, “Itaewon Class” takes place in the Seoul neighborhood of Itaewon, which is known for its multi-cultural, international, and generally open atmosphere.

EVERYTHING ABOUT HANGUL (KOREAN ALPHABET)

Who created Hangeul? Hangeul was developed by King Sejong the Great. King Sejong was known as one of the greatest kings of the Joseon Dynasty and is recognized for his achievements. During this period, the country was able to develop itself as a nation throughout the development of the Korean language, agriculture, science and technology, medicine, music and law. It was King Sejong who led this progress. However, King Sejong does not receive acclamation solely due to his brilliant achievements and skills. He was also a wise king who loved his people. King Sejong was often gracious to his people, and made effort to improve the status and conditions of his people. How was Hangeul created? Before Hangeul was made, the elite borrowed Chinese characters as there were no characters in our language. However, the common people had difficulty learning the Chinese characters and were often treated unfairly. Saddened by this, King Sejong felt compassion for his people ch...
