To be pedantic, Korean doesn't use ideographs. It is a syllabic script
(an alphabet with grouping into syllables). It does mix Chinese Han 
ideographs
in it though (except on Hangul day, when only Korean is allowed to be 
written).
It doesn't look anything like Vorlon. (Though in a odd coincidence, one 
of the
debian developers working on Korean support uses vorlon in his email 
address.
So maybe there is a secret link there.) ;-)
