King Sejong Institute

Korean Language Class

Who is King Sejong?

Sejong the Great (1397–1450) was the fourth king of the Joseon Dynasty of Korea. He is the creator of Hangeul (the name of the Korean Alphabets). Hangeul was designed in a way that was simple enough for anyone to easily learn, and we hope that YOU will give it a try, too!

King Sejong is also famous for reinforcing Korean Confucian policies and executing major legal amendments. He was at the forefront of a great period in the history of Korea when the cultures and language thrived, so we have named the KCO Language Program the King Sejong Institute in honour of him. We hope all the attendees of the King Sejong Institute will be inspired by him.
