Upstream[1] says this about the license:

  2 저작권

  은글꼴의 저작권은 GPL + (문서/이미지에 대한)embed 예외 조항이 포함되어
  은글꼴을 사용한 출판 및 디자인에 대해 상업용,비상업용 목적으로
  사용하는 데에 아무런 문제가 없습니다.

If I understand correctly, this means that the fonts are released under
GPL + embed exception (for documents / images).  README.Debian seems to
be outdated.  The upstream note is from 2012/12/29.
