How did Hangul's block system develop?

Hangul aimed to make Korean writing easier to learn. King Sejong of Korea created it in 1443; the 1446 Hunminjeongeum guide explained its letters, block assembly, and purpose for people without Chinese literacy.

By 1894, Hangeul entered official use after spreading through everyday, religious, literary, and practical writing. A 2019 study proposed a parallel with the ʼPhags-pa script; the comparison does not establish descent.
