Preview of MaruMinya Hangul, a free pixel style Korean font

MaruMinya Hangul (마루미냐 한글) is a squarish pixel free font that supports Korean and Japanese characters. It was created based on the original free Japanese pixel font MaruMinya (マルミーニャ), by adding the complete Hangul character set on top of the available characters from the original font. Similar to MaruMinya, the Korean characters are also constructed with the 12px base square size where the x-axis and y-axis is the same 12px, resulting in a rather natural strokes that has a rounded look, and are not overly straight and blocky which enhances the readability.

MaruMinya Hangul works great for bitmap or pixel graphic designs and interfaces especially for games and artwork with gaming themes, to bring out that retro, nerdy look. Besides aforementioned Korean and Japanese characters (with kanji support up to JIS Level 2), MaruMinya Hangul also supports Latin and Cyrillic scripts.
