ハングル

Reading chat nicknames and texts

ㅋㅋ, ㅠㅠ, ㄱㅅ — the alphabet is the slang.

解説は英語です。韓国語の行と意味は選んだ言語です。

Koreans type consonants as emotion: ㅋㅋ (laughing), ㅠㅠ (crying), ㄱㅅ (감사 thanks), ㅎㅎ (hehe). The keyboard IS the emoji.

Vowel shortcuts: ㅇㅋ (OK, from 괜찮아? 오케이), ㄴㄴ (no no), ㅇㅇ (yes yes). You already know these sounds.

Once you can decode ㅋㅋㅋ vs ㅋ vs ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ (polite → suspiciously polite → dying), you've graduated chat school.
