[New Movie] "The King's Letters" Tells the Story of Korea's Unique Written Language

Korean's written system has always fascinated me. It is so uniquely suited to the spoken Korean word because of specific efforts of the monarchy and its scholars. "The King's Letters" re-imagines the creation of hangul, the Korean language, and boasts of a fine cast including Song Kang-ho, Park Hae-il, and Jeon Mi-sun.
