Episode 28: Negative Sentences!
안녕 친구들~! I’ve had such an incredibly stressful week, having to run around looking for an apartment to rent for next year and doing lots of check-ups are the hospital (don’t worry, I’m perfectly fine, just making sure I’m healthy), that I totally had no time to write this post yesterday. Please forgive me! As for the topic of today’s lesson, I don’t think I’ve ever properly learned how to form negative sentences and I feel like that is the case for a lot of students out there.


Episode 27: ~(으)러 가다/오다 Explained!
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


Episode 23: -서 as a Cause-and-Effect Particle!
안녕하세용~! -What does -서 do?-
This little particle has the power to merge two sentences into one, serving as a 'because' or a 'so' equivalent. This particle illustrates a cause and effect relationship between two clauses of the sentence. -Where does -서 stand in the sentence?-
-서 can be added to VERBS or ADJECTIVES, not nouns (!), in the 'cause' clause of the sentence. Basically, it'll all make sense in the examples :) Examples:
돈이 없어서 여행을 할 수 없어요- Because I don't have money, I


Episode 22: -에 and -에서 Explained!
Good morning lovelies! For some of you this topic may seem a little too easy but I always like to go back to the basics and make sure I understand why things are the way they are so today I decided to focus on our favourite topic and that is PARTICLES! Obviously we're not going to talk about all the particle cause that would take ages. Today let's just focus on 에 and 에서! -에 as Time marking particle: 일곱시에 일어났어요- I woke up at seven o'clock 친구가 금요일에 왔어요- My friend came over on F


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 19: ~(으)로 Particle
안녕하세요 여러분~! It feels like I haven't made any Korean learning videos in forever! I've been so preoccupied with university work and my other YouTube projects that I feel I totally abandoned our ~Weekly Korean~ videos *cries* However, I'm back on track and ready to bombard you with intense Korean learning vids! But seriously, get ready. These won't be easy. Today we'll be exploring the myriad of meanings that ~(으)로 particle has. It's a very tricky particle when it comes to trans
