It's really interesting to see non-English languages being used as programming languages.
I recall Aheui (아희) programming language that was posted on HN a while back. It's truly exotic.

will print hello world according to the example. Reading it phonetically in Korean, makes no sense at all.
If I knew how to design programming languages I would do it like this:
> ㅍㄾㄴHello Worldㄱ
this is the equivalent of the acronym for 프린트 (ㅍㄹㅌ) or print (english word phonetically typed in Korean) and then using the "N" and "G" Korean alphabet to depict a square parentheses.
> prt(Hello World)
인쇄(印刷) would be the more formal word in which case further simplifies the acronym.
> ㅇㅅㄴHello Worldㄱ
