Yun Dong-ju’s Prologue (1941), from Sky, Wind, Stars and Poems.
죽는 날까지 하늘을 우러러
한 점 부끄럼이 없기를,
잎새에 이는 바람에도
나는 괴로워했다.
별을 노래하는 마음으로
모든 죽어 가는 것을 사랑해야지
그리고 나한테 주어진 길을
걸어가야겠다.

그리고 나한테 주어진 길을
걸어가야겠다.

05 / Questions
Questions about East Sea Dokdo
Answered from its licence and its font file, and each app’s own font list
Is East Sea Dokdo free for commercial use?
Yes. East Sea Dokdo is under the SIL Open Font License 1.1 , which allows commercial use at any scale: print, websites, apps, videos and logos, for clients and in products. What it forbids is selling the font file on its own.
How do I download and install East Sea Dokdo?
FontKind doesn’t host East Sea Dokdo’s files: it comes free from Google Fonts . On its page there, choose Get font, then Download all, and unzip the file: it holds a single font file. On Windows or a Mac, double-click each font file and choose Install, then restart any app that was open.
Does East Sea Dokdo cover every Hangul syllable?
East Sea Dokdo draws 2,484 of the 11,172 modern Hangul syllables. That is more than the 2,350 of KS X 1001, the standard set for everyday Korean, so a rarer syllable may come out in another font.
How do I use East Sea Dokdo on a website?
Through Google Fonts: its stylesheet cuts East Sea Dokdo into about a hundred small files by character, and a browser downloads only those holding the characters a page shows, never the whole 3.0 MB Regular file. To host it yourself, cut it down to the characters your pages use, a step called subsetting, and serve it as WOFF2: the SIL Open Font License allows that, and as East Sea Dokdo reserves no name, your copy may keep it.
Can I use East Sea Dokdo in a game or an app?
Yes. The SIL Open Font License lets you build East Sea Dokdo into a game, an app or an e-book, sold or free, with no separate licence to buy, as many paid fonts require. Ship its licence with the font files, and don’t sell the font on its own.
Is East Sea Dokdo in Microsoft Word?
Not until you install it: East Sea Dokdo isn’t one of Microsoft 365’s cloud fonts. Installed, it is in Word’s font menu and PowerPoint’s. For someone who hasn’t installed it, turn on Embed fonts in the file in Word’s save options: its licence allows that.
Is East Sea Dokdo in Google Docs?
Most likely. Search for East Sea Dokdo under More fonts in the font menu of Docs; added there, it is in Sheets and Slides too.
Is East Sea Dokdo in Figma?
Yes: East Sea Dokdo is in Figma’s font menu, in the browser and the desktop app, with nothing to install.
How many weights does East Sea Dokdo have?
East Sea Dokdo comes in one weight, Regular (400). Ask for bold and most apps thicken the letters themselves: a faux bold, not a drawn one.
Does East Sea Dokdo have English letters?
Yes: East Sea Dokdo draws all 52 letters of the English alphabet, so a line that mixes Korean and English can stay in one font.
Who designed East Sea Dokdo?
East Sea Dokdo was designed by YoonDesign Inc. It has been on Google Fonts since March 2018.
What fonts are similar to East Sea Dokdo?
The most used Korean brush fonts besides East Sea Dokdo are Nanum Brush Script, Dokdo and Gungsuh. See every Brush font for Korean.
