  1. Lena,

    Hi! I just started to relearn korean again! If you want a partner to learn with add me on kakaotalk (id:getnolove) I only use TTMIK and sometimes other random sources btw.

  2. Emily Vanesa Perez,

    I would like to start but where when can I start with the Korean alphabet?

    • Heidi Green,

      look up a youtube video explaining it; once you watch it, get a chart and study the sounds each of the letters make, and gradually try to read and write words to familiarize yourself with them (i.e. I used kpop members names)

    • Cindy Kipkorir,

      Have you tried seemile on YouTube?I liked their order but, I would also recommend go Billy go,also on YouTube. It’s kinda lengthy but he teaches stroke order and review questions at the end. To wrap it all up he finishes with batchim aka pronunciation rules. Look at the compressed version. It’s not as hard as it sounds . FIGHTING!!๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

    • Rosi Amalia,

      it was easy to remember Hangul just googling and remember it. ^^

    • Samuel Jo,

      I’m not too sure, but it’s a lot easier to learn Hangul beforehand. It’s very easy to get the basics, so it shouldn’t be a problem.
