Back 2 Korean Language

Korean language or Hangul (한글) is one of those languages that you may learn in a few minutes....I mean to read & write...but the reality is: the more you study it gets difficult!

There are languages within a language such as Hanja and then differnt speaking styles with respect to different age groups hence, life is difficult but nevertheless, interesting. I will share a few words as well as proverbs that would be helpful for Korean language learners particularly when you are with your Korean friends & wanna label them (for fun)!!

Accoring to our professor, the easiest way to learn Korean is to live it and use it as often as possible. :-)
