Korean Slang Expressions
Product Details
Have you ever heard a couple of people talking to each other in Korean and you can kind of understand what they are saying, but there are some things you just don’t get? Ever listened to a Korean drama dialogue only to become frustrated when you can’t find a certain term or phrase in your dictionary? More than likely, the words you were trying to find were slang expressions, and, unfortunately, no dictionary can help you understand them. However, the staff and teachers of TTMIK have come to your rescue with this book by combining two volumes of our popular e-book series “Slang Expressions in Korean” into one beautiful book! Learn Korean slang expressions that are used on a daily basis in South Korea.
This book is based on the popular e-books “Slang Expressions in Korean Vol. 1 and Vol. 2”, so if you’re looking for different contents, you don’t really have to get both the e-books and this book. Please choose just either the book or the e-books.

Guillaume A.
Very useful beautiful book. This book is really well done. The content is great because each slang expression comes with explanations and example so you can use it later in the proper context. The quality of the book itself is very good.

Great book! I am a beginner and was a little intimidated when buying this book. However, the phrases are explained well, and the slang is fun and relevant. I am able to use many of these expressions with confidence:)
Yuki C.
Awesome book! The layout is simple, great contents that you can really put in real life situations and the book is easy to follow and with the examples given you can really get the sense on when/how to use the slang. My Korean friends were shocked when I’ve tried using one of the slangs learnt from the book lol

You have sample sentences, and contexts where to use thoses expressions. You’ll also find the origins of the words, didn’t know that 알바 was from the german word “Arbeit”! That’s awesome you learn a lot of things! The illustrations are funny and pleasant. I’m a big fan of TTMIK books, so my judgment is biased, haha! I’m completely in love with the concept.
