Hangeul FESTA 2025

‘Write your language in Hangeul’ video contest

About Hangeul Festa 2025

  • Hangeul Festa is a festival where foreigners write their own language using Hangeul. Sing or tell a story in your language, transcribe the sounds in Hangeul, and share your video on YouTube! This year, we’ve added a new category using the “Nuri Hangeul Transcription System,” developed by the Hangeul Nuri Foundation. Please choose either the General Category or the Nuri Hangeul Challenge Category when submitting your entry!

About the Nuri Hangeul Transcription System

  • The Nuri Hangeul Transcription System is a writing system proposed by the Hangeul Nuri Foundation, designed to represent the sounds of various world languages based on the original design principles of Hunmin Jeongeum.
    The system builds on the structure of Hangeul and revives several letters from Hunmin Jeongeum that are no longer used today—specifically, ㆁ, ㆆ, ㅿ, ·, as well as the lenis consonants ㅸ, ㆄ, . Some of these characters—such as ㆁ, ㆆ, and ㅎ for glottal consonants, and ㅿ for semi-dental consonant—are used as diacritics. Compound vowels are formed using the basic vowel element ·, following the principles of Hunmin Jeongeum.
    Beginning with English, Chinese, Spanish, and Japanese, the system is intended to expand to support a wider range of languages. A PC input method is currently under development and will be introduced at a future Hangeul Festa.
