Summary/Abstract: The Korean alphabet, Hangul, is the unique alphabet which has a definite production process. All of the letters of Hangul can be defined in terms of production according to their aesthetic features. The main consonants were produced due to the articulation places in the mouth and the others were produced adding some other additional strokes on them. Vowels are based on the cosmic representation which consist of three original letters where the others are produced upon these three letters.
