Sans KR
Bloxwap Sans KR and Bloxwap Mono KR extend the Bloxwap design to Korean Hangul.
Bloxwap Sans KR and Bloxwap Mono KR are companion families that add Korean Hangul to Bloxwap Sans and Bloxwap Mono.

Each font also contains the Latin, Greek and Cyrillic of its parent, so mixed Korean and Latin text stays in one design.

Using it
With the combined stylesheet, font-family: "Bloxwap Sans" renders Hangul from Sans KR, and only pages that contain Hangul download the file. Mark Korean content with lang="ko":
<p lang="ko">다람쥐 헌 쳇바퀴에 타고파</p>:lang(ko) {
word-break: keep-all; /* break between words, not inside them */
line-height: 1.6;
}
/* the complete Korean font under its own name */
.korean { font-family: "Bloxwap Sans KR", "Bloxwap Sans", sans-serif; }- Line breaking. Browsers may break Korean between any two syllables.
word-break: keep-allkeeps words whole, as most Korean typography expects. - No italics. Italic text uses the upright Hangul.
- Metrics. The CJK fonts use an ascender of 1000 and a descender of −300 (Latin: 960 / −240). Set an explicit
line-heightwhen mixing scripts.
