Hangul (Template:Langx) is a proprietary word processing application published by the South Korean company Hancom Inc. Hangul's specialized support for the Korean written language has gained it widespread use in South Korea, especially by the government. Hancom has published their HWP binary format specification online for free.[1]

The software's name is derived from the Korean word Hangul for the alphabet used to write Korean. In Korean, the software's name is officially stylised (Script error: No such module "Lang".) using the obsolete letter Script error: No such module "Lang". in place of the modern Script error: No such module "Lang". in Script error: No such module "Lang"., and is also frequently referred to as Script error: No such module "Lang". (Script error: No such module "Lang".) or Script error: No such module "Lang". (Script error: No such module "Lang".).[2][3]

Haansoft was on the verge of bankruptcy after the release of its 2002 version, due to the widespread use of illegal copies. A campaign to support the development of Korean software and promote the purchase of legal copies of Hangul allowed Haansoft to recover.[4]
