HWP files are created using editor called Hangul Word Processor.
I have recently succesfully opened them using MS Word 2002. I don't know 
if Word 2000 or even Word 97 can do this, someone might try it.  Most 
important I think is that if you decide to use Windows, it should be 
Windows 2000 or XP as these OSes have CJK support built-in, you can 
easily switch this option on during installation. In Windows 98 you 
might be forced to use some third party software like Unionway to have 
CJK support.
You can also use the Easy Viewer it at 
http://www.mic.go.kr/eng/jsp/res/res_100_02.jsp.
Easy Viewer is in Korean.
These are for Windows.
There is this page http://www.hansoft.com/ which deals with Korean 
programs for Mac.
Some report StarOffice 6.0/OpenOffice 1.0.1 is able to open HWP files, 
but I haven't mananged myself to achieve this, maybe I will have to try 
harder.
