    시험 잘 봤어요?

    Episode49 worksheet Hello guys how have you been? You've been good? Finally I'd finished the mid term exam so I have been able to make new one and put it on here. Sorry I've recorded it in Korean again but I will definitely make new one in English ha ha ha. I've already tasted it how sweat recording in Korean is. This episode is about how to ask and answer " How was or how is your exam?" in Korean or it could be " how did your exam go?" I know it would be hard so far for you who have studied Korean for couple of months. However learning Korean in Korean would be better than in English so please be patient ( Do not throw things away even you feel really frustrated) and try to pick up the rhythm of Korean. Thank you

    " 내일 시간있어?"

    Episode49 Worksheet Hello everyone. 지원 again. Today we'll learn how to ask " Are you free tomorrow?" in Korean. Before you plan to meet up your friend you probably ask his or her free time of your friend. I recorded this episode in Korean. it has nothing to do with I feel procrastinated to record in English at all. I believe English has to be learnt in English it's vise and versa. Get all hassle away from you. You don't need to think twice to use Korean. Try to think everything in Korean and speak in Korean in the first place as you speak Korean. Please download the worksheet and try to speak every Korean with me during you listen to this episode. It doesn't matter you don't understand. If you want to step up your Korean skill, the first thing you must do is getting a skill that you can read and pronounce every words and letter in your own. So reading through the script while you are listening this episode will be helpful. If you have any question, drop me an email or just shout out in here. Thanks a lot.

    Talking about the weather in Korean

    Episode 48 Worksheet Hello How are you doing? How's weather over there? Here, South Korea weather's turned into spring it's so nice. Sometime the temperature drops down so quick but it gets warmer again. I love spring, autumn rather than summer, winter. Just not good for hanging out. Summer is horrible. High humidity, monsoon, high temperature are where you get annoyed without any reason. One of my friend 진선 helped me to record. So you will hear proper conversation between two people..... Relax and have fun! Reminds you do not push you up so fast unless you are so desperate for learning Korean. Just have fun with Korean and Korea do not make you get bored while you study Korean. Cheers!

    Saying Date and Time in Korean

    Episode 44 Worksheet Here 안녕 Listeners! 안녕하세요 Listeners! What's the difference between two? Yeah the first one is 반말 and second one is 높임말. I bet one of the crazy things to learn Korean is studying 반말 and 높임말. Because Korean is one of the most weird languages which has got different style of language you should choose regarding to a situation in which you are. I can't come up with any other words for explaining existence of 반말 and 높임말. Korean grows up with it but you are not that's why you feel hard to study it. Does mean there are no way to know how random our 반말 and 높임말 rule is. Anyway to sort out the problem of you've got about 반말 and 높임말, we'll start with the question from Japan asking us difference between 나 and 저. It's so important that I decided to share her question with you. then We'll study how read and say Korean numbers and which words should be used to say month and date. If you successfully finish this episode you can read it Good luck to you guys

    Basic Grammar 이 + Noun 이/가 뭐예요?

    Episode 40 Worksheet Here A: How are you doing? B: I am fine and You? A: I am fine too Thank you I do remember when I started to be taught English teacher in English class had me to remember that short conversation in a book first. Fortunately I realised that there were so many greetings in English after I left high school when I was 19. Put it another way I had thought people who live with English would be so bored to say " Hello " to their neighbours with one greeting till I graduated High school. New government published new policy to fix up English education problem which has been messing up whole Korean students since South Korea was appeared on the world map. It is really controversial issue in Korea. I just hope new government's ambitious education policy makes a difference. So What I wanted to say is ...Let's study Korean!
