Hangul Day 2026

580 years since Hunminjeongeum — we prepared a small event.

On Oct 9, a small treasure hunt opens with finds hidden across HangulHub.

A short note

Hi, I am the developer behind HangulHub.

It felt a pity to let Hangul Day pass quietly, so I put together a small event. Look for the treasures hidden around the site, try the special quiz, and stamp your own Korean name as a seal. Nothing grand, but I hope you enjoy it.

Thank you so much for visiting HangulHub. I will keep improving it little by little. If anything bothers you or you wish the site did something more, please feel free to send feedback.

TREASURE HUNT

Hangul Treasure Hunt

In search of Hangul’s lost letters

Hangul began with twenty-eight letters; today it uses twenty-four. Four lost letters (ㆍ ㅿ ㆁ ㆆ), the four syllables of its original name, Hun·min·jeong·eum, and a letter from King Sejong — nine Hangul treasures are hidden inside gourds around the site. Split a gourd open to learn what you found.
