Prephrasing
안녕하세요! (Hello!)
한국어를 배우고 있나요?” (Are you learning Korean too?)
댓글로 알려주세요.” (Let me know in the comments.)
As someone who is passionate about reconnecting with my Korean heritage, I’ve decided to finally start learning Korean and Hangul. I’ve created a beginner-friendly course to help others like me get started on their language learning journey.
You will find the curriculum outline down below!
Don’t worry, this will be a fully fleshed out guide and compendium.
This course will be regularly updated and reviewed as I progress and discover new, effective resources for learning. If you enjoy my work and want to support me, please consider tipping or supporting me at https://linktr.ee/jinparkiam. And for the latest updates on my course, be sure to follow me here on Medium!
Thank you for your support, and let’s learn Korean and Hangul together!
