    Hey there! Thank you for putting up this exercise, it was really helpful! 😍
    But I've noticed a mistake on the very first word: you wrote 머니터, but shouldn't it be 모니터?
    Thank you again, hope you have a great day ❤

    The first exercise is helpful for living and getting around in Korea. It's useful to know where the bus stop is, where to get a hamburger or pizza, and where to grab a cup of joe.

Good day, my dear readers! It has been so long since I have written something about Korea here, and that's because of my busy schedule upon entering school again. However, it's our vacation these coming two months, and your writer is here to give you a bit of what Korea can offer! Before you start this writing exercise, be sure to read this post on how to Learn Korean in less than 15 minutes.  This article can help you read and write Korean, for less than a day, and if given much concentration and dedication, for just less than fifteen minutes. Just remember that learning Korean is not that hard, you just have to give your time and your patience, for learning a new language might just be piece of cake!
