〈SuperBlackGothic〉 is an original drawing of display-sans serif font designed by Choi Jeong-ho, the '80s. 〈AG Super Black Gothic〉 is a digital font designed based on the study of the original drawing. It's focused on the daring correction of weight, ink traps, and delicate space distribution which can be seen in the original drawing. It was first released in 2017 and then upgraded by adding characters in 2019. Various symbols were newly designed to enhance usability.
The main feature of Super Black Gothic is the highly heavy strokes designed to fill up the square frame. Strokes are adjusted lighter and differently to evenly distribute the proportion of counter space when a letter has multiple strokes, i.e., ㅃ.
Print surplus band phenomenon from the original drawing is applied on the stroke edges. This adds strength to the type. Print surplus band phenomenon, a feature of Hangeul, is applied on the edge of stem.
Size, weight, white space, baseline and more of the numerals and symbols are adjusted to harmonize with Hangeul and Roman Alphabet.

인류가족 모두의 존엄성과 양도할 수 없는 권리를 인정하는 것이 세계의 자유, 정의, 평화의 기초다. 인권을 무시하고 경멸하는 만행이 과연 어떤 결과를 초래했던가를 기억해보라. 인류의 양심을 분노케 했던 야만적인 일들이 일어나지 않았던가? 그러므로 오늘날 보통사람들이 바라는 지고지순의 염원은 ‘이제 제발 모든 인간이 언론의 자유, 신념의 자유, 공포와 결핍으로 부터의 자유를 누릴 수 있는 세상이 왔으면 좋겠다’는 것이리라.
유엔헌장은 이미 기본적 인권, 인간의 존엄과 가치, 남녀의 동등한 권리에 대한 신념을 재확인했고, 보다 폭넓은 자유 속에서 사회진보를 촉진하고 생활수준을 향상시키자고 다짐했었다. 그런데 이러한 약속을 제대로 실천하려면 도대체 인권이 무엇이고 자유가 무엇인지에 대해 모든 사람이 이해할 수 있도록 하는 것이 가장 중요하지 않겠는가?

그대가 능숙히 어루만지는 내 영혼, 그리고, 물결 속에서 황홀해지는 수영선수처럼, 그대는 깊고 넓은 고랑을 파지. 말할 수 없을 만큼 남성적인 기쁨과 함께. 그대여, 이 어두운 독기로부터 멀리 날아가, 높은 공기 속에서 그대 스스로를 깨끗이 하고, 저 빛나는 공간을 채우는 정화의 불을 순수하고 신성한 음료처럼 마셔요. 지겨움과 크나큰 슬픔의 뒤 이 안개 같은 존재 위에 짐을 지우네, 행복한 자는 강인한 날개를 지닌 자, 빛나고 고요한 평원으로 날갯짓한다.
