Kpop From Seoul

If you recognize IU in English, try spotting 아이유 in Korean. Her Korean stage name has three syllable blocks: 아 · 이 · 유 . That small discovery gives you a useful place to start reading Hangul, the alphabet used to write Korean. Start with one familiar name, then learn how its blocks fit together. You can use the same approach on artist pages, album listings and street signs. This guide walks through a few letters, the word 한글 , and a real Seoul Station sign, with official resources for the next step.
