  4. Samuel Jo,

    Lol. The reason i’m learning korean is because when I went to korea to meet my relatives and family I could barely speak a word.

  9. Maria Luíza Mota,

  10. Xyra Mae Merced Anglo,

    May I know what’s the difference between 까지 and 에? Thank you

  11. urvashi rani,

    For beginners these lessons are very helpful and a good start for learning Korean but definitely learner should know hangul first. Lessons are quiet simplified. And then the voice lessons are amazing, Explanation by both the educators hyunwoo and kyeong-eun is simple and easy to understand.

  12. link,

    heyy thank you for this lessons!
    But it would be great if there would be an option in the personal settings to disable the romanization! i try not to look at the romanization, but once my eye sees them i can´t overlook them :/ i think that this applies to most people

    • Kamiliuks,

      I agree!!

  13. Jsa Brnrdo,

  15. Abby's Channel,

    In korean,아니요 or 네 means No and Yes.But 아니요 and 네 can also exchange to use.

    Example:

    1.멕저 저아요?
    Ans:네,멕저 좋아요.
    아니요,멕저 안 좋아요(correct me if i’m wrong)

  18. ee jia,

    these lessons are for you to learn after u know hangeul right?

    • Tzu~,

      In my opinion, yes.
      Knowing how to read and write hangeul will help you to understand/memorize certain things easier and faster. Down the road there will be less and less english explanations, at this point you should be able to read/understand hangeul on a basic level at least.

  19. Jane Chaisue,
