Day 12 - Review - #12DaysOfHangul

k-is4korean:

Before going to Korea, I never imagined that I would have to learn to read and write again. The most admirable thing about Hangul is that it was created with the purpose of making it accessible to all. Today, hundreds of years later, even a person from a foreign land like myself can easily learn it too.
Hopefully you’ve enjoyed this short journey towards new literacy.
It’s Day 12! That means you should have a good grasp of Hangul. I’m confident you can write on your own now and that’s why I challenge you to put your new skills to practice. Grab a pen and paper and let’s see how well you do.
