안녕하세용~!! This week's video is nice and short but I decided to add something new to it, which hopefully I will be able to continue doing if you guys like it. If you haven't watched the whole video yet, do that. Do that now and you'll know what I'm talking about. The overall concept of ~(으)러 가다/오다 is not essential to learning Korean. You'll be able to form perfectly fine sentences and communicate effectively without it. However, it does raise the level of you Korean and makes i


Episode 25: Direct Modifying with Verbs and Adjectives!
안녕하세용 여러분~!! Please excuse my raspy voice and blocked nose; I've been ill with a cold and fever since Monday. I'm pretty sure I've mentioned feeling ill in my Website Launch video and everything went pretty much downhill from there. I've been bedridden the whole week :/ But I'm not going to be a Debbie-downer and think negatively about it because I got to rest and have my boyfriend take care of me, which was kinda nice :3 Also I'm not going to let this stupid cold stop me fro


Episode 24: ~는데 Explained!
안녕하세용~! Last week I was asked what are the uses of ~는데 and I was terrified of the thought of trying to explain it because it's just such a brain killer. It's honestly not that difficult, however it does require a certain knowledge and familiarity of Korean language and is mostly based on context. As much as I was afraid of this topic, I decided to be brave and tackle it head on with you guys, so here's what I came up with: ~는데 and ~는 데 are VERY different and mean TOTALLY diff


HiNative: Global Q&A Language Exchange App Review!
안녕하세용~! This week I decided to review a very useful app, which can help you get comfortable with not only Korean but many other languages! This app is called HiNative and it is a global Q&A language exchange service available in over 120 languages! Overall I was very satisfied with this app and I'm quite certain I'll be using it in the future when it comes to deciphering slang words or obscure phrases. *Apparently the ticket feature is only available for those who purchase th


~Weekly Korean~ Episode 21: 받침 Explained
안녕하세용~! I'm so so sorry for abandoning YouTube for like 2 weeks... or maybe even 3 weeks....... :O Second year of university proved to be much harder than I thought and I really had to get my mind out of everything, lock myself in my room and focus focus focus! Being the perfectionist I am, I just have to give it my 100%, which all you students should do too because studying is fun! :D (Yes, I'm that one weird nerdy person who loves to study) As for what we'll be covering tod


Episode 20: Pronouncing Tricky Consonants!
학생들 안녕하세요! 잘 공부했어용? We've reached yet another milestone!!! Our 20th episode learning together!! I'm so excited even though it's almost midnight and I'm falling asleep :3 Useful Info: I divide consonants into 3 groups in my mind for convenience- the double consonants, the 'regular' consonants, and the 'soft' consonants. Soft consonants- ㅋ (k), ㅍ (p), ㅌ (t), ㅊ (ch) I call them soft because they will only have a this soft/airy pronunciation and will always sound the same in ever


Episode 2: Tricky Vowels
안녕ㅇㅇㅇ 인구들ㄹㄹㄹㄹ! ^^ I'm sorry for a small delay, I was going to upload this video yesterday but it just took too long to edit because I had so much footage to go through! I guess I was just so eager to share everything I knew about this week's topic that I ended up with over 20 minutes of footage, so please forgive me! As for the theme of this week, it is VOWELS (모음 "mo-eum"). PRONUNCIATION GUIDE: 아- 'a' --> that sound we all make when we get a genius idea or suddenly understan

Learning Korean On-the-go: Useful Smartphone Apps
안녕~!!!! I'm pretty sure that the title of this video is self explanatory so without any unnecessary blabbering, here are all the apps that I've mentioned in the video (and maybe even a few that I didn't) : 1. Pop-Popping Korean (Free for Android and Apple) This beginner-friendly app mainly illustrates the pronunciation of the Korean alphabet through audio and animated demonstrations of mouth and tongue positions. Though the breadth of what the app teaches is rather limited, t
