How to speak Korean
★★★★★

Thanks to this I will be able to speak and see how good my Korean is! Also I will get to talk to my IDOLS in Korean as well.

Useful Pronunciation Rules
★★★★★

Well, though U could learn some useful pronunciation rules, it could be better for providing more examples. Also, not all the rules are introduced in the entire course of 6 videos. There are some other rules too. When ㄹ meets ㄴ & vice versa, it is ㄹ sound. For instance, 설날 is pronounced as 설랄, & 선로 is pronounced as 설로. When ㄹ meets ㅁ, 음력 pronounced as 음녁. For ㄺ ㄻ, the 2720 rule, pronounce ㄱㅁ etc.

Good in every necessary ways
★★★★★

I like yoon sam fun character. He is also not strict with the rules and very flexible teaching method. On top of it with on point information. Its a really helpful and well prepared lesson.
