This is taken from factzo
This blocky alphabet was invented on Sejong of Joseon Dynasty. This alphabet is adapted from chinese writing just less hidden catch (you know the intonation etc). on the link there is some of the history behind Hangul if you are not happy with the website just type "Korean Alphabet" and Mr. Google will be happily to show you lots and lots of other website.
How to use:
1. Just like in English we have to pair it up the Consonant and vocal some times 2 alphabet (think of At, On, Ma) or sometimes 3 alphabet (think of And, Tea) to make syllable.
2. if a word start with a vocal rather than consonant they will start with ie - ung or ㅇ
I have a good example (at least good for me): Mother 엄 마 this is pronounce as Om-ma not Ngo-ma.
of course there might be have more rule that you have to know, but this is the general rule that you need to know in this stage.
once you remember all the alphabet you ready to read lots of things (without knowing the meaning...)
