The korean writing system, hangul, is phonetic.

Yeah, I know hangul is phonetic, but I've also heard they make use of a variant of chinese characters in some limited fashion (mostly give names, place names, and academic histories).
So are the hiragana and katakana components of Japanese writing.
And lovely, by the way.
