Hi Mark!

If you live in an urban area in the US or Canada, someone is probably 
using Hangul in the format of a Bible or newspaper somewhere within five 
miles of you even as we speak!  I'll tell you more about it in the future.

Good luck in your efforts to become a linguistic.  I tried for years but 
eventually gave upward.
