HWP file extension
Hangul Word Processor (Korean) - Text Document Format
Hangul (aka Hangul Word Processor or HWP) is a word processing application from Haansoft, and is very popular in South Korea, mainly due to the way it has been designed for the Korean written language.
Text documents created in Hangul are saved with the extension HWP. Any HWP files created with Hangul '97 or before can be opened with OpenOffice. However, .HWP files created after this version are not compatible due to the changes in the file format's structure.
Most recent versions of Hangul are able to save documents in Microsofts .DOC format.

you'll need a Hangul Viewer to open that file but if you would require to edit the file you'll need the Haansoft Hangul 2002 or later installer.
Hangul Viewer is like acrobat reader
Haansoft Hangul 2002 is like Adobe Acrobat

The link for download Hangul Viewer: www.haansoft.com/hnc4_0/english/hangul2004_03.htm
After download, install it and the file icon is change to the Hangul icon. Remember that if you still can't open the file, it's because of the file's name is not compatible with the program, change it to a simple common name and everything is ok.

Hey, as I say: go to this link www.haansoft.com/hnc4_0/english/hangul2004_03.htm, and you'll find the icon "Hangul Viewer Free Download" in the right vertical bar. Click and Download it (about 10MB), then Install and you can open the file .hwp (take care about the file name too)

The link posted above leads to a Korean only site. It has a link to the English site, but I cannot find a link to an HWP viewer on that site.
Can anyone help with a direct link to a download of HWP viewer? It is very frustrating and hard to find in English.
Thanks
