It's an FAQ, explained over and over again. Yes, the original block of
Hangul syllables was removed and a new block created at the insistence
of Korea. This was only possible because nobody had implemented the
original block. It can't happen again.
A lot of people were very unhappy about the whole matter. Many would
prefer that Newbies read the Standard and the unicode.org Web site and
not mention such things in public. :-)
