About Hangul Daily

Hangul Daily is a free daily Korean-word puzzle for foreign residents in Korea. A new word lands every day at midnight KST, drawn from the practical vocabulary you actually encounter living here: housing terms, transit signs, banking forms, hospital paperwork, menu items. You have six guesses, with a category hint and a one-line meaning at the top so beginners can learn the word as they solve it. Past puzzles are playable from the archive but do not count toward your streak.
