SK Telecom said on the 7th that it is running the 2026 Malmoi campaign with the National Institute of Korean Language and the National Hangeul Museum to mark the 100th anniversary of the designation of Hangul Day. The campaign uses AI to revive records of the Korean language.
Malmoi is the manuscript of the first Korean dictionary, compiled by Ju Si-gyeong and his students. Korea NGO Times (한국NGO신문) reported that these records were analyzed with AI and reconstructed as a typeface and a booklet.
EBN reported that, using an AI model SK Telecom developed itself, words gathered more than 100 years ago were revived as a typeface and as language anyone can use.
