How handwriting differs

just some examples of how handwritten characters vary. i may add all of my translations to a post later, but for now I wanted to focus on some common ones

handwriting is difficult to read at first, but it gets easier with the more you see:)

아미들의 is from my “learn korean with bts” book. everything else is from my SF9 merch

ㅁ sometimes looks like a D and sometimes like a ㅇ. and if you are hwiyoung of SF9 it is a ㄹ…. lol (check captions of photos for what is written)

많지?!
아미들의
지금이 좋으니까 (sometimes 니 looks like a 4)
올 여름도 화이팅. (in 잉, the ㅣ is often connected to the ㅇ looking like a 6)

.

.

ㄹ often looks like 근 (ㄱ ㅡ ㄴ) or a squiggly line

그래서 라면
돌아가고 싶지 않아요

.

.

sometimes ㅌ will look like a ㄷ with a line above it. sometimes it is like a weird z (as seen in the “올 여름도 화팅” inage shared above.

.

.

ㄷ is sometimes written like this

.

.

Sometimes, characters that stack in a row of 3 are handwritten like this

.

.

.

Of course writing can differ in a lot of ways, but I feel like these are the most common. Also, your handwriting will improve with time. Fitting things like 좋 and 활 in the lines, as well as looking more native and less blocky, it all comes naturally over time:)
