Gaegu
Gaegu is a handwriting-style font with a casual, personal appearance. Its single normal style and three available weights give it room to move from light annotation to more noticeable display text. With Korean and Latin subsets supplied, it may suit projects that need an informal accent across those character sets.
Best suited for: Use Gaegu for friendly headings, short notes, invitations, labels, captions, and other brief pieces where a handwritten feel can soften the page. It can also work in posters or social graphics when the text is limited and the informal character should remain easy to notice.
Design considerations: The 300 weight can help keep small accents airy, while 400 offers a balanced option for everyday display text. The 700 weight creates stronger emphasis for titles and short callouts. Since only the normal style is listed, vary size, spacing, and color carefully rather than relying on italic contrast. Keep longer passages restrained.
Pairing guidance: Balance Gaegu with a clean sans serif for supporting text, especially when details or instructions need a calmer reading texture. A neutral serif can provide a more editorial contrast in invitations or posters. Keep the companion font restrained, and let Gaegu handle the shorter, more expressive parts of the composition.
