Note on the transliteration of Korean
There are a number different ways to write Korean in the Latin alphabet. The methods shown above are:
- (first row) the official South Korean transliteration system, which was introduced in July 2000. You can find further details at www.mct.go.kr.
- (second row) the McCune-Reischauer system, which was devised in 1937 by two American graduate students, George McCune and Edwin Reischauer, and is widely used in Western publications. For more details of this system see: http://mccune-reischauer.org
