Korean language

Korean is the official language of South Korea and North Korea, with about 80 million speakers worldwide. It's a unique language, belonging to the Koreanic language family, distinct from Chinese and Japanese. The writing system, Hangul, was created in the 15th century and is known for its simplicity and efficiency. Korean grammar is agglutinative, meaning it builds words through various affixes to express complex meanings. The language has a rich vocabulary with influences from Chinese and English, particularly in modern terms. Korean culture, including music and cinema, has significantly contributed to its global popularity in recent years.
