What is the best way to learn Korean?
Learn the Hangul
Hangul is the name for the Korean alphabet. Used since 15th century A.D, during the Joseon Dynasty, the alphabet consists of fourteen consonants and ten vowels. It is said to be the most scientific alphabet in the world since it reflects every human sound and, as a result, is deemed easy to learn. Once you have mastered Hangul, you will quickly be able to read texts in Korean, which will help significantly with your Korean language learning outside of the lessons with your teacher.
Listen to K-Pop
Korean pop music is popular all over the world. Being able to not only sing along to the lyrics, but understand them, would certainly be an impressive achievement. The catchy nature of the songs, such as those performed by the famous pop band BTS, allow the words and phrases used to be more easily remembered.
Learn vocabulary
It can be frustrating when you are learning a new language and the words you need in a precise moment do not come to mind, rendering it impossible to get your meaning across. Setting yourself goals to learn vocabulary regularly will help you overcome this problem.
Loanwords
While learning Korean words is essential, Korean is also has many loanwords borrowed from English. Being able to communicate is therefore possible even when relying on words you have learnt from English.
