=== Letter placement within a block ===
{{Alphabet}} The placement or "stacking" of letters in the block follows set patterns based on the shape of the medial.
Consonant and vowel sequences such as {{lang|ko|ㅄ|nocat=yes}} ''bs,'' {{lang|ko|ㅝ|nocat=yes}} ''wo,'' or obsolete {{lang|ko|ㅵ|nocat=yes}} ''bsd,'' {{lang|ko|ㆋ|nocat=yes}} ''üye'' are written left to right.
Vowels (medials) are written under the initial consonant, to the right, or wrap around the initial from bottom to right, depending on their shape: If the vowel has a horizontal axis like {{lang|ko|ㅡ|nocat=yes}} ''eu,'' then it is written under the initial; if it has a vertical axis like {{lang|ko|ㅣ|nocat=yes}} ''i,'' then it is written to the right of the initial; and if it combines both orientations, like {{lang|ko|ㅢ|nocat=yes}} ''ui,'' then it wraps around the initial from the bottom to the right:{{col-begin|width=auto}}

A final consonant, if there is one, is always written at the bottom, under the vowel. This is called {{lang|ko|받침|nocat=yes}} ''batchim'' "supporting floor":{{col-begin|width=auto}}

Blocks are always written in phonetic order, initial-medial-final. Therefore:
* Syllables with a horizontal medial are written downward: {{lang|ko|읍|nocat=yes}} ''eup'';
* Syllables with a vertical medial and simple final are written clockwise: {{lang|ko|쌍|nocat=yes}} ''ssang'';
* Syllables with a wrapping medial switch direction (down-right-down): {{lang|ko|된|nocat=yes}} ''doen'';
* Syllables with a complex final are written left to right at the bottom: {{lang|ko|밟|nocat=yes}} ''balp''.
=== Block shape ===
Normally the resulting block is written within a square of the same size and shape as a Hanja (Chinese character) by compressing or stretching the letters to fill the bounds of the block; therefore someone not familiar with the scripts may mistake Hangul text for Hanja or Chinese text.
However, some recent fonts (for example [http://www.wazu.jp/gallery/Fonts_Korean.html Eun, {{lang|ko|HY깊은샘물M|nocat=yes}}, UnJamo]) move towards the European practice of letters whose relative size is fixed, and the use of whitespace to fill letter positions not used in a particular block, and away from the East Asian tradition of square block characters ({{lang|ko|方块字|nocat=yes}}). They break one or more of the traditional rules:
* Do not stretch initial consonant vertically, but leave [[Space (punctuation)|white space]] below it if no lower vowel and/or no final consonant.
* Do not stretch right-hand vowel vertically, but leave white space below it if no final consonant. (Often the right-hand vowel extends farther down than the left-hand consonant, like a [[descender]] in European typography)
* Do not stretch final consonant horizontally, but leave white space to left of it.
* Do not stretch or pad each block to be a [[fixed width]], but allow variable width ([[kerning]]) where syllable blocks with no right-hand vowel and no double final consonant can be narrower than blocks that do have a right-hand vowel or double final consonant.
So far, these fonts have been used as design accents on signs or headings, rather than for typesetting large volumes of body text.
=== Linear Hangul ===
There was a minor and unsuccessful movement in the early twentieth century to abolish syllabic blocks and write the letters individually and in a row, in the fashion of the European alphabets: e.g. {{lang|ko|ㅎㅏㄴㄱㅡㄹ|nocat=yes}} for {{lang|ko|한글|nocat=yes}} ''Hangeul.''<ref>{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=vj8ShHzUxrYC&pg=PA162&vq=karo+ssugi&dq=%22karo+ss%C5%ADgi%22&sig=39QrEwqbXzROfdlEpz3DFo_GJKQ|title=Korea: A Historical and Cultural Dictionary - Keith L. Pratt, Richard Rutt, James Hoare - Google Boeken|date=1999-09-13|publisher=Books.google.com|accessdate=2012-04-13}}</ref>
Avant-garde typographer Ahn Sangsu made a font for the "Hangul Dada" exposition that exploded the syllable blocks; but while it strings out the letters horizontally, it retains the distinctive vertical position each letter would normally have within a block, unlike the century-old linear writing proposals.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/oded_ezer/317881477/|title=Hangul Dada, Seoul, Korea|last=Ezer|first=Oded|publisher=Flickr|accessdate=2012-04-13}}</ref>
While Koreans have largely accepted the European-derived conventions of writing successive syllables left-to-right in horizontal lines instead of in vertical columns, adding spaces between words, and European-style punctuation, they have completely resisted getting rid of syllabic blocks, the most distinctive feature of this writing system.
