Me, Learning Hangul
I am proud of myself for I can now pretty recall some Korean words and sentences other than saying Annyong haseyo.
I can now understand their sentence construction, which differs from the English language.
If we say ‘I am going home’ in English, it is like ‘home I am going’ in Korean, or like ‘Bahay ako punta’ in Filipino, not to mention those formal, polite, and informal endings. If you are watching Korean dramas in DVD’s I am sure you already noticed that Korean actors often say heyo or imnida at the end of their sentences. Well, that’s being polite or being formal depending on the person they are talking to: their friend, their boss, or their parents.
Last night, I learned, however, that siblings no matter what order it is, talk to each other using informal endings. I really admired how they were able to switch perfectly those endings. Just imagine if you are talking to your boss, your friend, and your brother at the same time. Anyway, a Korean has mastered it being a native speaker. So, for foreigners like us, it is safe to use the polite endings heyo or hayo. I wonder when I am going to watch Korean dramas or movies without subtitles. I could recall my first impression of the Korean language years back. I think it was the time I watched My Sassy Girl (I wasn’t able to finish it), and ‘Full House’ in Korean. Whew! The actors seemed to be angry all the time and they spoke too fast. I said that it is a difficult language to learn. (Actually, I thought I would not be able to learn a language by myself). But it changed when I decided to research on Korean’s writing system, the Hangul; the writing system is being admired by many language scholars. Then, I found myself engaged in studying the Korean alphabet.
It was hard at first since I am used to reading roman letters. In fact, I surrendered and resorted to the Romanization. But when I tried to memorize songs in Korean, I discovered that Romanized lyrics weren’t good to follow especially when I compared these to what I was hearing.
I often revised Romanized lyrics just to sing the Korean songs correctly. I learned later that Hangul have some irregularities unlike Filipino, which is described as ‘kung ano ang sulat, siyang basa’. It takes patience to master these irregularities, but once mastered the rest will be easy.
If you are planning to learn a language like me, you better start now since it takes time before you become fluent. (But according to a trivia I read, no one is ever fluent of the language he speaks, even those native speakers. Interesting.) ^ _ ^
Besides, imagine the benefits you will reap once you learn a new language. Research those benefits in the net. And pick the language of your interest.

i’m learning japanese right now and their sentence structure is even weirder…
i.e.
eng: your clock is very late…
Jap: totemo kimi no tokei wa osoi desu.
when literally translated to filipino…
* Sobrang iyong relo ay huli na.
It’s unfortunate that I don’t have YM installed in my computer. We’re both online now.
I guess learning sentence structures from different languages is fun.
I find the sentence construction of Korea right now similar to the Tagalog’s makata version. Yung panahon ng balagtasan. heheheh
yah, learning different languages is totally fun. hihihi
i have to agree with the sentence structure in Tagalog. Im half and half, so im bilingual… enough. I was amercanized after a few years but im bringing it back!
Good to hear that you’re bringing our native language… ^_^ anyway.. what about the structure? was is it the balagtasan similar thing or the bahay ako punta??? hehehe
hi!!! am studying korean language as well. fortunately a korean lady offered to teach me for free. she teaches me how to read the alphabet first and she ask me to memorize it by heart. whew… kinda confusing… but it’s worth it.
Hi mals50,
You really are lucky!!! I envy you… I hope I can find one, too. heheh
I believe you’re in Manila right now.. right? If you want i can lend you a book with a CD for basic korean study. I’ll be there this 3rd week of June, what do you think? By the way i just want to ask how to download mp3 songs from eSnip. it seems to me that downloading those songs are like downloading files fron youtube.
Mals50,
I think that’s great! about the cd. Yipee… we can meet by then. You have to register on Esnips… sign-up first before you can download the songs. I haven’t tried downloading in youtube, so I don’t know what do you mean.
ok, am still arranging my vacation leave, dont worry because the CD is in here waiting for the new owner. by the way, am already register on eSnip, i can play mp3 but i cant download it.
why? did you sign-in first before you search the mp3? The sign-in link is in the upper right corner
yes, i sign in first… saan ka nagwo work?
I’m working in Makati as a writer for internet sites… I opened esnips this morning and I sign up as I usually do. I can still download, though… Try this…
when you already found the song you already like to download and on on the exact page..not the search results…. try to check if you are still sign in… in the upper right corner still… when you click the sign in button, there will be a POP-UP… so sign in
But if you really are still sign in… Check the Links below the MP3 Player thing… below the image are links in gray font colors…probably there are eight links… the first should be DOWNLOAD not Mp3 Widgets
If it still does not work, maybe that particular song is not meant for downloading. Some uploaders do that….
Pasensya ka na inenglish ko kasi baka may ibang visitors na may ganito din problem..
no probs… nakuha ko na kagabi. i know am doing wrong yesterday morning. thanks!! see ya..
Nag-aaral din ako ng korean ngayon… Kasi nakakafrustrate manood ng naka-subs especially sa pirated (haha!)… so much is lost in translation… I haven’t tried romanization of songs yet… pero assignment ko yan one of these days… Hay naku… maybe I should quit my job and act as a tour guide to those Korean people in our college… hahaha!
goonggong,
Hey…. dto na ako ngiwan ng message kasi mhb na sa kbila… anu ung sinasabi mong assistanship? san ka ngapply? gusto ko rin kase… ^_^
Research… kasi may tie-up sa ilang university sa Korea yung school namin… Supposedly ngayong July paalis ako, kaya lang nagkaroon ng misunderstanding yung head ng department namin saka yung nag-rerequest ng RA sa Korea… Lalaki daw pala ang gusto nila! kaasar nga, eh… I’m keeping fingers crossed for October, though. Naghahanap nga rin ako ng job openings sa Korea, pero lahat puro ESL teachers, eh. hay naku.
Sayang, I just recently graduated… arala kaya uli ako… hehehe
i’m learning mongolian,korean,japan,french so many others like philipinoand it’s fun
Hoh,me too.I’ve learn quite a lot.I’m not flashy!Good luck anyway..
i’m learning nihongo now…and i love it.
I love to write kanji, katakana and hiragana… but it’s a lil hard for me to write hangeul (although it oughta be easier than kanji n stuf xD). I often watch korean dramas, so i can remember korean words orally…
im also studying how to speak korean!!! coz i want to ofcourse understand korean language!!!! thanks!!! gappssuminda!!!
wow! ang daming pinoy dito ah!hehe… im learning to speak korean too.. interesting kc language nila.. oo, parang bliktad nga tlga subj & predicate nila.. marami na rin akong mga korean dVd’s sa bahay.. kakaiba kc cla gumawa ng mga stories.. khit mejo oA kung minsan, maganda pa rin panoorin…mas malala ang pgka.OA ng mga dramas ntin..hehe… in my opinion lang ah? baka batuhin nio ko!
chinese & korean language ung gusto kong mtutunan ngaun, & i know it would take time, pro i have all the time ikanga..hehe
post pa kayo ng mga korean words… lamat guyz!o_0
my mga msn or ym ba kyo?
ayy nako sino kaya ang mag bibigay sakin ng website para matuto ako
ako rin xarah nabili ko na yata ang lahat ng korean dvd na 12 in 1 sa quiapo eh
pano kaya ako matutuong magsalita magsulat at mag hanngul as in
Buti pa kayo ako nga ala pa masyadong natutunan medyo nakakafrustrate nga kase kung kailan nakabisado ko na yung korean alphabet saka ako nawalan ng time dahil sa dami ng ginagawa graduating na kase. Sana matuto din ako ng iba-ibang language like japanese, korean, chinese at saka iba pa. Salamat pala sa mga sites na pwedeng makatulong sa tulad ko hehehe…..
No problem ^^
hi, i also want to try learning KOrean— is there a school I can go to here in Manila, sa Cubao ako nakatira. Sobrang nakakaaddict nga ang korean dramas— lalo na ang Coffee Prince! Sana matuto rin ako ng Hangul— thanks!
kaingit ka nmn, ate., ^_^ ako nmn, mejo memorize ko na ang kanilang alphabet. marunong akong
magbasa at sumulat. pero ganun pa man, hindi ko alam ang mga ibig sabhin. pero dhil nga nanunuod ako ng mga dvd, mnsan, napapagtagpi-tagpi ko yung mga salita at ibig sabihin. tama rin ung sbe mong bliktad. kgaya ng “i came from the phiippines.” magiging “i philippines came from.” Iba ang sentence pattern nila, mas nahuhuli yung verb. gusto ko ng intonation nila. ^_^ mnsn nga mei mga salita pa sila na sobrang binibigyan ng stress, ung ang tunog na boses nila e prang gasgas ung lalamunan,. hehe. sna maging bihasa ako sa hangeul. at matuto pa ng ibang language. slamat sa mga romanization mo., ^_^
Annyeong Kreah!
You do good work sofar…
Haha funny, I myself also learn Korean and Japanese. I personally think it’s easier (for my German tongue) to READ the romanji than the romanization. But yeah ??? is easier than ???, that’s just my opinion though. Korean is easier to write, definitely! And yeah, have you ever been to Korea?
Well, I’m happy I’m going SUMMER 2008 ^_^
Just lucky school here’s paying to go to school and not other way around and I save every Eurocent already now *hehe*
Ok, tc always!
AN NYONG HASEYO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

akala ko talaga ako lang ang ganito….nakatira ako sa oman (middle east) at walang katulad ko na mahilig sa mga k-stuffz…so walang nakakarelate sakin… =[
masayang masaya ako dahil meron palang may mga katulad ko na talagang sobrang enggross sa mga Kz...
-nung nakita ko yung hangul alphabet, hindi ko talaga inisip na mahirap siya so inaral ko talaga. kaya nung napag-aralan ko na..narealyz ko na ang dali pala!kala ko ang daming alphabet!yun pala kaya siya nagkakaiba dahil kinocompress lang pala siya...kung hilig mo naman talaga madali kang matututo db?di tulad ng mga lessons sa school!!!mahirap siyang intindihin dahil hindi ka interesado...he3!sana talaga makita kita in person.. =]

kumawo~
anyong~!
Anneong Kreah! Likewise I started to be interested in learning the Korean language since I saw one of the best Kdramas I’ve seen Lovers in Paris & the rest is history! At first I thought it must be hard to learn & write it but once you got the hang of it, you’ll be able to follow - slow but sure - at least I am speaking for myself! Modesty aside, I can now read the characters or alphabet & write at the same time. It may take some time of course to basically understand the meaning but like you I first learned how to say anneong haseyo & kamsahamnida that’s all I knew but thank God I now know other words & phrases like how to say I miss you or I want to see you which is bogoshipo and of course sarang hae yo I love you! I think if you’re interested & determined to learn nothing is impossible! I continue to learn & maybe in my next writing to you we’ll be able to converse in Korean (smiles). By the way your w/site is great & thanks for sharing the lyrics! I love them! Kamsahamnida!
yan ang pngalan na pinili ng K-friend ko para sa akin daw! marami rin palang mahilig sa Pinas ng Kdramas ano - kaya nga after makanood din ako eh nagustuhan ko ang tunog ng salita nila! Kreah ang galing mo we’re proud of you at sa site na naisipan mo! Ngayon nasabay na tuloy ako sa kanta nila at ang gaganda ng OSTs nila bukod sa ang ganda ng mga storyline at napaka wholesome! sana nga matuto na rin akong mabuti ng language nila kasi napapagod rin ako magbasa ng subs at same time kasi titingin ka sa mga actors/actress. I agree sa yo Aya akala ko rin mahirap ang pagbasa ng characters pero once na memorized mo na ang alpha o consonants at vowels kasi 24 lang sila in total. duon lang ako nalilito sa parang vowel nila na ang isa parang letter T ang isa naman parang baligtad na T pero siguro nga after a while sa pagbabasa eh matutunan na rin natin. I love anything related to K-dramas & Ksongs! Hope wag kang magsawa Kreah sa pag share ng lyrics! Kamsamnida
wow! i admire your perseverance… like you i also want to learn korean language (pti mandarin) hehe… pro im not as serious as you are, ang dmi ko kasing things na gnawa kya hnd ako mka pg focus on learning the language… haiii… you inspire me girl… hopefully i’ll be like you… =)
learning korean is painful yet fun ! even watching over 130 k-dramas still can’t understand it without sub. 자는 바부이마?
kreah, you have a nice website. ang unang k-movie n napanood ko yung “a moment to remember” at hayun na addict na rin me sa k-movies and k-dramas. i’m trying now to learn their language…hay…and hirap intindihin. nakakatuyo ng dugo!hahahaha
hello there! i really love what you wrote, im also a certified k-drama,k-movie addict and im also intrested in learning Hangul..i could understand some words but of course understanding what they were saying will be really more intresting keep up the good work!

Hi!!
Still remember me? Am so sorry i was not able to contact you when i visit Manila. I was so busy and i was there for only 3 days. If your still interested in learning Hanguel I have the CD here i can upload it for you. It is 70.7MB. What do you think?
The only problem is the book for you to follow the CD.
hello! I am interested to learn korean language too, thanks for sharing some commonly used words in korean drama OST ^_^
actually i had learned about korean han geul in college which is 3 years ago.. it’s very difficult, but when i start romanized one song.. i became addicted to korean han geul.. too bad that i couldn’t continue the course.. and because i never use it in my daily life it’s just missing from my head.. and now after i read your experienced, i want to take you as my role model.. i want to study once more… thanks kreah for being such a great role model for me…
Hi yetera,
I’m also interested with hanggul, at the first time I thought learning hanggul was difficult. But then when I’m starting to learn it by myself from the book it wasn’t difficult if compare to Chinese or Japanese. It is fun learning Korean. But now I almost forget several words I learn because I don’t have time to practice.
Nice to know that there’s a lot of people who interest in learning Korean as much as I do.
Annyong..
Hwaiting Aza!!
actually it is better to read the letters in hanguel than that of the romanized.
because some of the sites that you will be browsing to will write in with how they pronounce it.
just like the word thank you.
some would say
“kumapsuhamnida”
but it’s actually
“kamsahabnida or Gamsahabnida” (since letter “g” ang “k” may share the same hangeul writing”
it’s really hard to learn the korean language
unlike the japanese..
korean is more complicated.
that’s my

hi people…anyways, hangeul is a pretty easy thing to learn. in fact, King Sejong, the one who conceptualized it, called it an “overnight alphabet” because of the relative ease to master it. However, it is the language Hanguk-eo which demands years of hardwork and patience.
My life partner is Korean, hence the need for me to learn her language. I’m into my first year now and I am quite doing well. I can carry informal polite conversation. The formal is another thing kkkk.
One piece of advise for those who wanna learn the language. Forego the FORM and focus on the MEANING. These are the two aspects of language. The former includes structures such as the Hangeul and formal hangeuk-eo. The latter focuses on everyday conversation in informal polite tone. One argument to prove this is: As children,w e learned fisrt how to speak before we knew how to write and explain grammar.
I hope this can help.
Goodluck to everyone!
P.S.

bba bba!!
hi there apol,
great korean!! kkk a very important tip: never mix formal polite with informal polite. e.g. “na ireum apol imnida”. taking formal language, it should go as “na ireum eun apol ipnida”, with th eun/neun sunbect indicator. but with informal polite, handful of ways may do, e.g. je/jo neun apol i ye yo, na apol i ye yo. etc.
but really good korean kkk.
one mmore thing people, never confuse hangeul with the language. Hnageul is the alphabet, HANGUK-EO is the language.
Goodluck people!!!
kkkk SUBJECT instead of sunbect…kkkkkk i wonder what happened with this typo kkkk
an nyeong ha seyo!
i love studying different language..
but hanguk-eo passionted me,,and i’m so eager
to learn this..i can read hangeul a little..
by means of surfing the net..
i think korean writing is easier than japanese
because it’s a combination of katakana, hiragana and kanji(chinese characters)
and this kanji’s almost 5000 characters..
pls,post some of the phrases taht korean mostly used in everyday life..
thanks! i really love this site..

Its nice to watch korean drama, n see them express their feeling in Korean sentence. it sound more romantic. In sweet 18 drama, r they using difference language when they are talking to the elderly. Coz in the drama it seems different dialect wen they r speaking with their grandfather. N im confused, are they stil practising FIRST BORN CLAN tradition in Korea??
like you i dreamt also to study korean language coz of being fanatic
watching those k series but i have no time since im still studying
at present i really really love to learn korean language
hehe.
are you a filipino? i am. i’m also an addict of these korean dramas. i’ve collected plenty of DVDs and listened to many korean songs, (especially of kim jung hoon’s) i’m now learning the hangul, too. if i see hangul characters i read them slowly. pero now i’m practicing a lot. my friends tell me i speak korean fluently, though. but i don’t know the language that much. gotta learn more!
kreah…
i found one site can help us to translate korean…
http://kamus.com
you can try ^^
i really likes korean language and had been thinking about learning it.recently i borrowed books to help me learn korean language,but it seems not easy to learn.i dun even noe whether i pronouns it correctly or not.I wants to learn korean language may because of korean dramas.It influence me to learn them.I found it interesting and unique.Really hope one day i could learn to speak korean and able to communicate with a korean with confidence.
just stumbled upon your site and am in love with it. i’m trying to learn korean to communicate with my fiance’s family…i’ll definitely check out your resources.
p.s. i’m halfway through my first subtitled k-drama, ’single dad in love’. it’s fantastic!
Fantastic that you have learned a new language. I am Puerto Rican and learned English very young, it is true that one never become wholly fluent in any language but that has not deterred me from having interest (even at my age) to learn more!
Im a k-drama fanatic as well,until one time i found myself searching for a korean-english dictionary to every bookstore i pass by but, couldn’t find one. I want to learn hangul but,for the meantime, Im just relying on the subs into what i watch.I do listen attentively to what they say and write it on a paper.now, i know a couple of words hehehe… ANNYONG HI GYESEYO(goodbye)
im korean and i have figured out that korean is very hard. im not very fluent at it though cuz i moved to america when i was very very young. but it gets easier once u hear it and read it. it is very confusing example-
annyeong ie gehsaeyo means bye when ur the person leaving
and annyeong ie gahsaeyo means bye when the other person is leaving
and anyung is just goodbye and hello, but not very formal
blah.
i really interesting to learn korea language…but it’s seems too difficult
i’m happy if someone can explain to me learning together lol
so far i learn from the drama and just a simple2 words that use in daily…but just very little bit lah
hopefully someone want to teach me :p
gusto ko din matuto magsalit na korean! na-memorize ko na nga un ‘hanggeul’
yay! nag t-try na me magbasa ng mga lyrics pero d pa ganun ka bilis saka d ko maintindihan kahit nababasa ko na.. TT.TT sana may magturo sakin na koreana/koreano. yun ata un pinaka mabilis na way na matuto… haha^^v

Hi, all. I am interested in the Korean language myself. I even bought myself a Learn Korean book (with 2 audio CDs) at National Bookstore fore Php1200. It is very informative.
During my free time, I listen to podcasts. It is ok if you don’t have an ipod. Using your pc, download iTunes. When you have installed iTunes, go to the iTunes store then click PODCASTS. Sa podcasts, search for LEARN KOREAN. You will see a number of Learn Korean podcasts but choose the one from Koreanclass101.com. It is really, really worth it. Just start with the Beginner and Newbie lessons.
If you don’t want to listen to podcasts, you can go to http://www.koreanclass101.com. And avail of their free lessons. They also have premium subscription but I didn’t want to pay since wala pang budget.
Hope this helped. Email me if you have questions.
Anyway, nice site Kreah. I always drop by your site pag may hinahanap akong lyrics.
hi, I was really inspired by all of you guys so i decided to study korean language too.
recently i started to watch Coffee Prince and notice that YEH always mention the word AHJUSSI. Do you know the meaning of this word?
Thank
Sid
I would like to embroider my granddaughter’s name in Hangeul (sorry, if I misspelled….)
Her name is Marissa An Tanner
Can anybody help!
Wow! KREAH, are you filipino? I never imagined. hehehe… Kabayan!
yeah, it took a while before I learned hangeul but it was really really fun and interesting. I actually prefer the original korean lyrics in hangeul than the romanized one. For some odd reason, I find the hangeul version easier to read than the romanized version. And I’m becoming more familiar with the language (korean) when I see the words written in hangeul.
Watching Let’s Speak Korean in Arirang TV helped me a lot too. And other korean sites like http://www.korean.sogang.ac.kr. Sogang has a very comprehensive site. You can choose the level of korean you want to learn.
Sid: Ajeossi means mister.
seems lots of filipinos are using this site! sweet!
i am learning korean too. been watching kdramas and been used to some common words. it just takes me time. im bad at memorizing… haha.
i also installed hangul in my comp. its pretty neat!
Well, I am also fond of watching koreanovelas. I don’t know but I am really amazed how they speak. Really very fast. I bought some books to help me understand their way of speaking. Though I am still having a hard time to contruct a sentence. I became familiar with annyong haseyo, kamsahamnida, yoboseyo, and some other words. I hope I can learn more. I am having fun learning the language.
tnx rox.
by the way the url that you gave is a deadlink.
tnx again.
Hey guys. Like all of you, I’m also very much interested in learning Korean language. Otteoke jinaesimnikka? (am not sure if this is correct. hahaha. anyway, it means how are you?)
hi there!
i’m addicted to watching korean drama right now. my latest k-drama that im watching is star’s lover. its still showing in korea so im patiently waiting over the internet to be uploaded.
i also want to learn to speak and read/write korean language. can you tell me what sites i can go to , even at least the basic ones first.
are there any korean here whom i can talk to.
thanks!
more power to you kreah!
i know how to write korean alphabet and it’s really fun.
but learing how to speak? gahd. super nosebleed.
i’m always watching arirang, they have a show called “speak korean”. It’s really hard to follow.
In korean, it’s easy how to write but i’s hard to speak.
vice versa in japanese.
haha.
do you know a website where can you translate the english word into korean?

love you all
thanks
anyeong haseyo, im 15 years old, living in kuwait and i like koreans too.. ive watched lots korean dramas and your right, its interesting and Spontaneous..
i know how to write korean and its really funny coz sometimes, ive been mistaken on what alphabet ill gonna use like, “naegasumeh deulohwa,” sometimes i wrote it, “negasumeh dulohwa.” its confusing.. then their d or b, i know theres two d or b right, but i dont know when ill gonna use the second alphabet!!
also, korean is the one of the easiest language in east asia, ive compared korean, japanese, chinese and i know whats their differents.. lam mo, pareho tayo, i also memorize songs like gue deh ji geum and i think i love you dun sa FULL HOUSE.. and its fun coz at the same time, im learning more on why is it like that..
and know, im getting to understand why they talk differently or having a hard time pronouncing english words or other dialects..
in japanese, i also studied katakana, but kanji, its really like chinese but still i can managed to know their differences..
well 4 me, i grew up here in kuwait, im already used to it in learning the pronounciation of hanggul.. coz first of all, not only japanese or korean that i have been studying, i also studied arabic.. its the same in korean, like theres also two k’s, two a’s.. im really proud of myself.. hehe:D:D:D:D:D SANA MAKAPASA SA TOURISM NA ITE-TAKE KO..
hello!! it’s so nice of you to have this site for k-frolics!! hehe.. like the rest of the gals and guys here, i am also an avid korean drama/movie fanatic.. i also got these dvd’s to watch and a good friend even gave me a copy of ost for our favorite korean series that had a hit here in the philippines last 2007.. the ‘which star…’ it was really a good good series.. ‘though i’ve already been a fanatic of that old k-series, winter sonata which starred bae yong joon as the lead guy.. well, that was way way back 2003 i guess..
because of these k-series, i got all my reasons to enroll korean language in makati..i took the weekend class since i am working..it was really fun and exciting for all of us in the class..though i was there for my korean addiction, others enrolled because they were required to learn the language since they were leaving for korea to work..
i also got my share to travel to korea, last year around october.. it was autumn then, when we got there..the climate was cool..we even had the chance to go to kyung-hee university, one of the finest and the best universities in south korea..an officer of the university told us that it was the setting for the hit series ‘lovestory in harvard’..we also got the chance togo to dmz and other tourist spots during our travel to korea.. it was a good experience visiting their country..
hello!! join din ako jan.. hehe.. Gusto ko rin matuto ng Korean kaya lang iba-iba ang turo na nakikita ko sa net e… suggest naman po kayo ng reliable source ohh. pls………..
OmG!~ Annyoung haseyo fellow Korean lovers! >___< *squeals* I didn’t realize there were so many people that were interested in the language!
As of today, well as of a while ago, I’ve been practicing and learning Korean! It’s fun yet difficult *I hate going past tense*
Reading this has given me even more encouragement to push myself. You see I’m training to pass the Korean Proficiency Test in April! I moved to Korea after visting for the summer and falling in love with the culture! 
I’m applying for the Kangwon National University with an International business and trade major! Wish me luck!
