Hangul Recognized as Only Major Script with Documented Inventor

Hangul is identified as the only major writing system with a known inventor. Historical records attribute its creation to King Sejong of the Joseon dynasty. The alphabet was deliberately designed in 1443. Documentation explains the rationale behind its structure and symbols. Hangul’s origin contrasts with most scripts that evolved anonymously. Scholars emphasize its significance in linguistic and cultural history. The script remains in active use for the Korean language today. Ongoing study of Hangul informs understanding of script development.
