Due to my personal lack of commitment to learning Korean at this point and not much interest from what’s left of the community I’m putting this domain up for sale.
Make me a reasonable offer and it’s yours. Contact me via email here.

Here is the link to pictures of the book I wanted to make a post about. It’s name is 국어 실력이 밥 먹여준다. My friend introduced me to the book and loaned it to me. It’s an offbeat book because it describes similar Korean words to Korean people as if Koreans were foreigners. I mean, most Koreans don’t need to study the difference between 속 and 안 / 붉다 – 빨갛다 / 끝내다 – 마치다 but this book explains their differences anyway. The book is in Korean. It would be great for a foreigner translating into Korean who has to be aware of slight differences between popular and common words.

Head’s up people!
the next time the bi-yearly exam is offered in Sept 13 (Sunday) if you’re in Korea and Sept 12 (Sat) for the rest of the 외국 world. But don’t let that fool you. Registratrion for the 16th 한국어능력시험 is July 1st ~ 15th (wed to wed). You can register through http://www.topik.or.kr/. Many 학원 in Korea will have a 3 month brush-up for the test, I’m seriouly considering taking one of those coming up here for the big push …

Quick note to say I’ve put up a new resource on my website Korean as it is here
It’s a podcast, great for intermediate level learners and of course has the transcript. I’ll do my best to get more up soon.

P.S Why is it that whenever I try and link something it never works? I’m using the link button in the editor, can’t remember the HTML code to do a link..(yes I suck!)

Korea is the only country with a word processing program in wide use which is written only in their language. It’s called Hangul. It’s spell checker can check spaces and offer suggestions for spacing or typos. It’s a very helpful tool.
