Korean alphabet is obviously much different, but they kept the concept of stroke orders to teach writing. I find it so rewarding how learning the correct order is an excellent place to start writing legibly, and is also necessary to be able to read "cursive" (letters written faster without lifting the pen).
The rule is basically: don't interpret it based on the Roman alphabet, learn the stroke order first to understand the letters, but then, have fun with it! 😊
Stroke order matters, especially for hanzi, since some characters are in fact composed of other characters, the stroke order often reveals some inner logic to the character. Learning correct brush-stroke order also makes it easier to remember the character, its one more memory hook. Ten starts as one for example 一 ，十。
