Why learn Korean?

Learning Korean provides a gateway into a culture experiencing a global surge through K-pop, Korean cinema, and skincare. South Korea is also an emerging powerhouse in technology and automotive sectors. For basic fluency, English speakers need around 1,500-2,000 vocabulary words and should anticipate 900-1,100 hours for general proficiency due to the unique alphabet and grammar. Key elements include mastering Hangul—the phonetic script—and understanding sentence-endings that convey formality. While the structure is different from English, subject-object-verb order and honorifics offer a fascinating layer of cultural respect in communication. Mastery not only enhances career prospects but also deepens engagement with a culture that's captivating the world.
