Abstract
It is already written that the origin of Chinese character was clear, it was China. From the book of Dallet [1], apparently there are some similarity between the Chinese culture and the Korean culture, but the two people are very different in the real sence. It is not easy to know the origin of Chinese characters, but it is possible to assume that the ancient Koreans has created the Chinese characters. The present researchers tried to analyze 15 Chinese characters. Here, the number was named by random as (0166-0180). It was named by random. The analyse was simple. In order to find out the Korean pronunciation of each Chinese character, the researchers separated the Chinese character into several parts. And the researchers assembled the pronunciation of several parts. For example, Mi(美): It is strange to say, but, this phrase of 'Aemiu' pronounces in Korean language "I am your wife!". The wife might want to hint to her husband that "I, your wife, am beautiful!, don't you know it?"
