The North and South differ on (a) the treatment of composite jamo consonants in syllable-leading (choseong) and -trailing (jongseong) position, and (b) on the treatment of composite jamo vowels in syllable-medial (jungseong) position. This first sequence is official in South Korea (and is the basic binary order of codepoints in Unicode):
Even amongst those middle-aged speakers who retain the distinction, the phonetic contrast between a long vowel and a short vowel has shrunk to 1.5:1, compared to 2.5:1 recorded in the 1960s; [30] additionally, the number of lexical items featuring long vowels has also reduced, with low-frequency words being more likely to retain long vowels ...
Hangul jamo characters in Unicode. Hangul Jamo (Korean: 한글 자모, Korean pronunciation: [ˈha̠ːnɡɯɭ t͡ɕa̠mo̞]) is a Unicode block containing positional (choseong, jungseong, and jongseong) forms of the Hangul consonant and vowel clusters.
This is the pronunciation key for IPA transcriptions of Korean on Wikipedia. It provides a set of symbols to represent the pronunciation of Korean in Wikipedia articles, and example words that illustrate the sounds that correspond to them.

The alphabetical order of the Korean alphabet does not mix consonants and vowels. Rather, first are velar consonants, then coronals, labials, sibilants, etc. The vowels come after the consonants. [59] The collation order of Korean in Unicode is based on the South Korean order.
Vowel length is reported neutralized, /y/ and /ø/ diphthongized, /e/ and /ɛ/ merged, /o/ raised, /ɯ/ fronted, and so on. Vowels of North Korean dialects have also undergone some changes, towards different directions. The article needs updated vowel charts, preferably illustrating both North and South Korean vowels.
