Tip 2+ : Change your mobile phone language to Korean. Trust me it won’t be a big hurdle for you since you are already accustomed to all the options but you will learn a lot of new Korean words and eventually will improve your vocabulary 🇰🇷👍
man I've been doing this for almost a week now nd i learnt alot of new words 💮
i tried that once and lost myself 😂
@@aditikulkarni8552 haha first u should know to read hangul....i learnt words like hakin,seoljeong,sajin etc...
true! both my phone and my computer are in korean, it's actually very helpful!
I did it a year ago and learned nothing OTL I simply know my phone so good already that know what is where without reading lol
For those of you who don’t know what to do after 한글, keep learning 한글! Learn about 받침, learn about double 받침, learn about consonant assimilation. I legit spent 2 months practicing my reading so I could feel more comfortable with the sounds and how they go together. Of course, you can do it in less time, no need to be as intense as I am, but really if you practice your reading you will find grammar structures and start noticing particles bc you see them repeat themselves in what you read. From there you can start looking up their meaning and how they work, and also will be able to know if it’s something you can learn at your level or maybe is a better idea to leave it for later. Write down the verbs you find in what you read! In what tense are they? What particles they have at the end? How does the verb interacts with the words after it? Is it a pattern that you can learn? Can you replicate the structure with another verb?
There is so much to learn you guys, PLEASE DON’T GIVE UP!
wonderful tip! Also what books or materials did you use to practice your reading?
@@rosamelietto I just look up practice reading or children books on TH-cam! I also look up songs’ lyrics and pause it so I can read them and then listen to how they say it and after practice and practice I try to follow along
Wah thank you! I really didn't know where to go when doing Hangeul and gave up. So, now that I want to start over, this advice really helped
@@juelleroach9501Once you find your own pace is so much fun! Try different things. Try translating songs, write down the verbs, write down the new vocab, make your own sentences with them. Listen to podcasts, just read lyrics and don’t write down anything if you don’t want to. Stick to one word and create sentences only with it, look for several TH-cam channels or websites. One topic will take you to the other, there is no need to stick to only one resource, and is better (at least for me) to change they way you study so you don’t get bored. Consistency is key! Even if you only have the energy to read 5min or learn 1 word per day that is still something! 💙. Good luck! 🥺
@@juelleroach9501 Also get Anki and a big deck of a few thousand words and start practicing that every day :) a good next step after hangeul is: vocab, grammar and input. Anki covers (some of) the vocab. You can use TTMIK and Howtostudykorean to practice grammar, and as for input, start watching shows, cartoons, listening to songs, beginner podcasts, etc. in Korean. Good luck.
I haven't never lost interest in learning Korean, I just have times when I'm more motivated or less motivated. My biggest hurdles are finding a way to learn vocabulary, I dont do well with just basic flash cards. My other hurdle is speaking, I need to get over my shyness and just speak and not worry about mistakes ❤
I'm in the same boat as you in some regards, mostly the shyness and fear of mistakes.
One thing that helps me on most of this though is writing what I can in Korean, and the rest in English. Then, after I finish writing it, I go back to the English parts and try to find how to express it in Korean. Given grammar and all that it may not flow, especially with more complex thoughts, but it helps build up the vocab.
As for speaking and stuff, it's literally just a matter of doing it. Which I get is easier said than done, but I think Yeji made a great point in that instead of thinking of the results, think of the consistency.
@@erichansen9669 I actually just started a Korean journal and my teacher is having me write down 2 sentences of things I did in my day, and your right you have to not be so worried about the grammar and just focus on writing what you know down and then looking up words after.
Also I don't know if your more of a visual learn like I am, but I just started putting together note cards but using pictures. I write the Koream word on one side and then put the picture on the other, I'm hoping it will help! Good luck on your studies!
Lucky you! I'm quitting
@@titaniumexpose6365 why quit?

For me, learning became not fun when I had a negative experience with a teacher. It was frustrating and I had thoughts of quitting because of the way I was treated. It took a few months and a lot of people being very supportive of me and encouraging me to keep going and not let this one bad experience define my Korean learning. Since ending my lessons with that teacher, I have found a group of new teachers who are super supportive and encouraging. My Korean has improved and I'm no longer worried that I'm not doing well enough. As you said, just continuing to study means I'm improving (and in reality, even slow progress is still progress). At the end of my last grammar lesson in 2021, my teacher complimented me by saying that when I started with her (6 months prior), I used only very short, simple sentences. Now she sees I am using longer, more complex sentences and higher level grammar. Comments like that (especially since she was so specific) really help me.
yess!! good luck to you ❤️❤️
What happened between you and that teacher?
Cheryle님 화이팅입니다!!!🥳
I messed up the other day the first time I tried to communicate a thought in Korean and the native I was speaking to kinda made fun of me and I just had to remember that when I was learning English as my first language I fucked up and cried about it a lot, but now I consider English linguistics one of my stronger suits. Just gotta keep on and learn from mistakes! 👍🏻
That first teacher, what did she do?
Goal for 2022? Be able to get by in Korean. Not be perfect, just be able to get the point across despite mistakes
I decided years ago that I wanted to learn Korean but after learning the alphabet I just felt lost. There were so many different things I had to learn like vocab and grammar and a million different ways I could go about trying to learn them - it was honestly super overwhelming. This year I want to take a step back from the whole picture and instead, every time I sit down for some studying, I just want to think about what's one single thing I could do that day to improve my understanding of the language. My goal for this year is to spend at least one hour each week doing this with Korean, and also one hour each week with Italian, but I'm a bit more focused on the Korean because I am much further along with Italian.
That's a great tip!
Oh 2 languages at the same time sounds challenging. Italian isn’t difficult. I just think it’s hard to think in 3 languages. Good luck! 화이팅!
I'm also teaching myself Korean and Italian right now!
@@Sunset553 I am doing German and Korean at the same time, while very slowly trying to get started in learning the bare basics of Mandarin and Japanese.
I am much farther along with Germany because I had classes many years ago, so it was easier to pick it up last year when I started learning Korean, and I ended up focusing more on German. This year I need to focus more on my Korean, been focusing exclusively on the letters - felt a need to get thoroughly grounded in that aspect when Duolingo came up with intense lessons focusing only on the letters and building up slowly into simple words.
@@Sunset553 Dude I started learning korean while I also had to start swedish in school (and was learning english too, wasn't that good at it yet) and it was probably not a good idea. Swedish and korean are very different but my mind still somehow manages to mix up words.
Nowadays, we most of us use smartphones. Setting up language to Korean is actually a great way to get exposed to the language daily.
Happy New year :)
That is also an awesome idea! 💜
What kind of app
But what app though? Do you know any?
that's a great idea💗
@@ainsley9880 I think especially apps in the "game" category have the possibility to change language.
For example animal crossing, a "role-play" game where you interact with characters and have small conversations. Reading those kinds of conversations would be great in korean :)
To start off my 2022, I changed my phone’s language (and some apps) to Korean. There’s a lot I don’t understand yet which can get frustrating, but I plan to stick to it anyway! I’m also going to Seoul next month for an exchange semester… which should help a lot 😜
Where are you from?
Have fun!
ahh congrats!! that sounds so cool
Thanks guys! I still can't believe it either! And I'm from the Netherlands :)
I'm also from the Netherlands, are you going with an organization such as EF?
TTMIK's new employee looks pretty, I haven't watched ttmik TH-cam videos in a while (few years ago).
I remember doing all the ttmik free lesson podcast, Hyun Woo teasing his colleague.
"teasing his colleague" lol

THANKS FOR TEACHING US
(LOVE YOU ALL TEACHERS)
i don’t know what i would do without TTMIK, thank you so so much !
Happy new year !!
Soooo needed this
I absolutely love the language. As basic as it sounds, I wanted to learn Korean because of KPop. I would love to be able to understand what is being said, not only on the songs but on variety shows as well, but because I have a hard time focusing even in my day to day life, it got a bit hard for me to focus on studying Korean..I get easily distracted, I tend to zone out and I have a hard time processing words, even in English.
I can sing along just fine to a lot of my favourite songs, it's just super hard for me to focus on studying. But I can also read a bit of Korean, slowly, super slowly but it's so satisfying when I actually understand the words on the screen. I feel that each year my vocabulary grows slowly but it's just focusing that is difficult for me...I'm getting tested for that soon
I can't wait to continue my journey with studying such a beautiful language, and to start it here 😁
Dear TTMIK: Thank you so much for all of your videos, books, podcasts, and all the content you make! I'm ready and motivated to continue learning 한국어 this year!
I'm so excited for the steps I'm gonna take this year for my Korean learning
Me too
ㅎㅎㅎ파이팅!!
Been using TTMIK for 3+ years now and this was a great and inspiring video. I really do need a kick in the pants reminder time from time on getting back into enjoying studying Korean, and this video worked. Thank you Yeji and team! Especially the graphics team, y'all done stepped it up!
새해 복 많이 받으세요~!! ♡
i lost interest in studying korean a few times because of repetition (in my study methods). reviewing the same things over and over again got boring. this year i'll try to find time to consume more input content and find better methods to make studying less arduous [:
Thank you so much
Nice editing!
감사합니다 언니
사랑해💜💜

안녕하세요! 👋🏻 새해에도 건강하세요! I think these are excellent tips. I always use the second one and the third one as well. As far as why I need to restart (structured focused lessons) is all about organization and time. I had also put it off because I thought some friends would be joining me, but that hasn’t happened, so I need to go ahead on my own. Thank you for all TTMIK does for Korean learners. 감사합니다!!
새해 복 많이 받으세요 ~💞
great video!! after taking a break from korean I usually start by writing a small diary entry just about things on my mind! I feel like that's a great way to get into the language again. Also, the entry doesn't have to be 100% in korean, I just write the words I don't know in english and look them up afterwards 🥰
Good luck to everyone studying korean this year, you can do it~!
Great video. When I feel unmotivated I tend to just consume input content. When I don’t feel like doing that, I’ll just try to stay consistent even if it’s just for a couple of minutes.
she is so sum up ! thank you and i am also learning korean this languague is so unique and beatiful
Thank you so much for this video!!!!🤩 I am motivated to learn Korean (again) because I have no excuses... I have korean friends and I want to go to Korea again, and visit other places. Some people say that knowing the local language is the best way to get closer to the people and their culture. Good luck for me!🤞☺️💜
TTMIK books really helped me in studying Korean ^^ I almost finished the book but due to time management, I failed to finish it since I was (am still) busy with driving class and studying. But I really recommended it to those who want to learn the Korean language from scratch. At least, it could be more easier if you learn how to read first (in my opinion) because of the grammar -_- its kinda complicated a bit but if you learn further, you will get it. Hwaiting!
The third tip applies very much to me. As I am improving in vocabulary and grammar, I recognized that my listening comprehension was not as good as it could be, which was quite frustating at first. But now I will add a new method in my learning pool from next week on which is finding listening material at my or just slightly above my level and test myself regularly. And also I will try to make more sentences on my own. Thank you so much and happy new year.
As always, excellent suggestions! I do most of these, but I highly recommend the small tip you said about reading numbers aloud in Korean. I do this when I am walking down the street and seeing addresses and phone numbers on signs. Even better is to try and say the numbers in the longest form so you can practice using 만, 천, 백. It is also useful to remember to switch between native and Sino numbers. Thanks for keeping us all inspired :)
Previously I always had trouble with language learning; but having Korean music, television, and TTMIK podcasts has really helped me. I didn't realize the importance of audio immersion! (And of pure enjoyment. I've never enjoyed a language as much as Korean, thanks to the pop culture! Korea makes it easy to want to learn the language 😂)
This is a really great video! It's been fifteen months since I started studying Korean. I'm decent at reading and writing, and not-great at pronunciation, but it hasn't hurt my morale. I think what is most frustrating for me is not being able to hear it yet. I can occasionally make out a word or two, but I need it spoken so slowly to understand. I wish I could train my ears to hear the language better--maybe that just comes with learning more and more words.
Happy New Year!💜💜

저는 한국어를 배우는 거슬 시작할 때 재미없었다고 생각했어요. 그렇지만 공부를 많이 할수록 한국어가 아주 재미있어요.
Happy new year everyone!
Thank you for sharing that it's about the consistency not the result I struggle a lot with this 🙌
새해 복 많이 받으세요!! Until you mentioned it I didn't realize why I had stopped studying, but like you, I had become frustrated with not being perfect and making mistakes. Language learning is a long process as you mentioned. It's kind of like eating an Elephant. To become fluent is a long, long process. I have to make a plan, and then just take one bite at a time. If I have a good plan, and I trust in the process, at some point all that will be left are bones and I will be fluent...the elephant will be eaten.
Switching methods is the best advice you could give us.
I am taking a Korean course with a korean teacher but it is soooo slow!! It's been almost a year since I started it and I can't even use adverbs. Then we had holidays and I began studying in my own and now I finished 3 books from that school and understand things I did not before.
Happy new year yeji kim sister (didi) 💜💜
I studied a lot of Korean until May, then I somehow lost my interest, but I didn't worry much. I focused on other languages and didn't care about Korean for a few months. Suddenly my motivation came back, and now I'm mainly studying Korean. Learning languages is just a hobby for me, so I only study when I feel like studying.
새해 복 많이 받으세요! I just started to study korean yesterday while studying for my degree in english ahahhaha. Hopefully this will go well. My only concern now is consistency. Semoga saya saya terus istiqamah (that's malay from malaysia) ehehhe
I always forget that consistency is always the key to achieving great learning outcomes. Thank you for reminding us!
( Cramming for my Korean test tmrw :(

@@talktomeinkorean 정말 고마워요 :)
My Korean learning started by handwriting Hangul in a translator to understand posts on a website. Then I started using an unstructured app and bought a textbook. The app teaches with games I like. I keep stopping, though, when I get scared. I haven’t started with the textbook. This year, I’d like to complete it and supplement it. I like your idea of getting more exposure to help make progress. I’m excited again!
I haven't started really learning korean yet, but I have a lot of exposure to it. One thing that has kept me from starting (and holds me back often from improving in other languages) is thinking of language learning as such a bit task. My brain continues to off language learning because it feels overwhelming. For me, learning a language little by little is more effective and efficient.
매우 감사🥰
I started my journey in 2020, my learning slowed down in mid-May 2021 as I had progressed through a lot of grammar patterns but still struggled with vocabulary. I kept recycling the same verbs and nouns making my learning monotonous and dull . But I restarted 3 months ago but by using different methods. Instead of just focusing on grammar patterns in TTMIK I took other lessons like Weekly Vocabulary and started using Hybe Edu, Naver dictionary and Netflix K-dramas for additional support. Its working like s dream!
새해복 많이 받으세요 😁
Cute
새해 복 많이 받으세요!
I’ve just switched methods of learning. I used to think that I could only learn if I was receiving information from a textbook or informational videos. My new favorite method is watching yt videos and Disney films in Korean or with Korean subtitles.
excellent video.I want to reach the same level of understanding in Korean as I have in English. I managed to understand 99% of the video without subtitles.
I didn't get tired of studying Korean but I did get discouraged a while back because the progress was so slow for me. I'm 60, and always did well as a student, but find now that it does take me a bit longer to learn things than it did when I was younger. I decided that I needed to treat my Korean learning as a process, and feel good about whatever steps I was taking rather than getting impatient with myself. I started to do more reviewing of things I had already worked on. I saw a good video on TH-cam from someone who gave tips based on their own experience, and they said to pick vocabulary words carefully and try to learn those that would be most useful for you. That was very helpful and I started to try to focus on words that I was most likely to use and would help me the most as a beginner in Korean. So, for example, I didn't learn the words for "mechanical pencil" right now, even though it was in a vocab list I had. I rarely use one of those, and couldn't picture when I'd ever have to ask someone to borrow one, or whatever! Learning words I was likely to come across in reading or that I might use often was better than just trying to memorize long lists of suggested vocabulary words. I've also set myself a little reward for finishing my current TTMIK textbook, and it is something I'm looking forward to(it is K-Pop related, lol) so that is also giving me a little boost of encouragement.
This is actually so helpful. I completely gave up a few months ago, I tried to go back a few times, but I just felt so unmotivated. I really want to find the motivation back, so, I'm going to take all these tips, thank you ❤
Same thing to me. I already gave up and feel motivated when i heard this video.
This video was made for me. I have decided to start learning Korean again now that I have finally pinpointed the reasons why I quit in the first place. There's actually two reasons - first was me being jealous that I have so many friends who speak Korean in an advanced level and they got there fast. This made me feel inferior. Second is the time limitations due to working + doing masters at the same time. Now that the latter is out of the way and I am ready to learn for myself (and not for someone else), it is time to catch up of where I left.
My doctoral advisor stated about the doctoral process, "How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time." In deciding how to effectively study the Korean language, I had to first study myself and in doing so, put these into practice. 1. I try to study during the period of the day I am the most alert. If I can't, I study anyway. 2. I hung a white board with magnetic markers in my bathroom to routinely quiz myself over parts of the language I struggle with. This has been very effective when I mixed up alphabet symbols, confusion related to the endless particles used in Korean sentences, and verb conjugation. 3. I've embraced the entertainment content coming out from South Korea and interact with it on a daily basis. This content gives an endless amount of opportunities to translate. 4. I trust the TTMIK system of learning, and have put their materials, resources, and advice into practice.
Her English is amazing btw. Been studying Korean for 4 months and some weeks feel so unproductive. And the milestones are subtle! But those moments will happen. I woke up freezing cold yesterday morning and my first thought was: 너무 춥습니다, which ain't perfect Korean, but the thought format was a milestone. I listen to the 190 Korean Phrases TTMIK video a lot while i walk. Also the Korean sentence practice videos are very helpful (work, school, meeting friends, etc.)
Thanks
For me, i lost the ambitious as i can't speak well (i don't know how to have a right intonation no matter how hard the teachers tried with me) and i lost 3 chances in one year to join the 말하기 대회 while my 후배들 passed me.( Still can't move on as i dunno how to chance my intonation)
i stopped studying even i had topik 4 before. But still exposed to Korean content.
Thanlk you for your motivating tips. I will try again.
새해 복 많이 받으세요 💕🌷
Trying to write intermediate-advanced sentences as a beginner caused me a lot of frustration last month. So I finally had to accept where I am. Drop perfectionism and acknowledge progress. The little things will add up.
I copy the lyrics of songs I like into a notebook. I will sound out the pronunciation of the words as I write it. I find it easier to learn words when there os a beat to it. Doing this allows me to learn to not only read Korean, but also to write it, to talk it, and hear it. It also allows me to recognize words, because songs often repeat lyrics.
Since I'm learning on my own I think I overwhelmed myself the moment all my books I ordered to help with writing arrived (cries in k-drama) I've been learning online but this was not helping me take in the necessary information to make it stick, I stocked up on spiral notebooks, pens etc I'll make it stick!
I found that if I study in a room I don't usually spend time in, flip on my phone with any desired lesson (hangul) & start taking all the notes following the lesson on paper, I turned a 1 1/2 hour lesson into 3 hours & I'm only 40 min in lol but it really did help, it reminded me how interesting the language really is & my drive came back. ( I've been suffering depression for the past few months so I've been putting my energy in the language, it's been therapeutic ) I do enjoy learning & once I start I'll keep on keepin on
I tend to wander from all points with everything (when I clean I clean all rooms at same time, learn everything at same time) it's hard to stick to ONE thing & work my way up, I need to learn Hangul ! having to go back to recall what ㅕ , ㅓ, ㅡ , & ㅗ was & how to pronounce to get through a practice review & I kept getting ㄴ & ㄱ mixed up, it made me realize this is where I need to pour all of my focus in. more I write them while sounding it out the easier it's becoming, & after a few hours I no longer get ㄴ & ㄱ mixed up. (woohoo!) so my advice is to WRITE WRITE WRITE!
it's still incredibly fun for me & every time I'm able to recognize a spoken word or read a word with ease, that helps me stay in the game with a sense of accomplishment. this day & age we have so much at our disposal online, there's no reason for me NOT to get through Hangul,
as a gamer- I need this achievement unlocked🎇 lol
Lastly, I had to remind myself WHY I wanted to learn the language is in the first place, & Then where to go after I've achieved this.. I decided to give myself an actual beneficial goal, Learn the language proficiently, turn it into a job/career. the endgame will come later lol one vowel at a time😂

I started learning Korean back in 2016 and continued for about 7 months. I stopped because I could, read, write and understand, but was not able to speak properly. It discouraged me to continue as honestly one of the main goals of learning a language is to be able to speak in it fluently. Also, I found Korean tenses kinda difficult.
안녕~
It would be so great if you’d make a video with tips and useful words for journaling in korean. I really want to try that but I don’t know if I use the right words and correct grammar.
One of the things they said on a previous vid is to get rid of that need of perfection. Even if you write one word and not a complete sentence, if this word is meaningful to you it will help to stick to your memory.
It's a good idea to learn new vocabulary and grammar to improve, but do not feel limited for the lack of vocabulary to start a journal!
I start learning Korean last year... In January.... It was an amazing feeling!! Still I'm learning korean... But I have a confusion... Like I'm only learning korean Alphabet... There are vireous types of talks... And what I'm talking about I Don't know how to tell this in KOREAN!!!! I wanna learn every word!!! I only know some basics!!😔 I can't talk freely in korean... I wanna talk freely in korean...❤️ I hope You'll help me....
Thank you so much💙 Happy New Year🥳
I lost interest in studying Korean last year because the lessons I followed each had about 50 new vocab words and 5 grammar structures, which I found overwhelming. I studied the lessons intensely because I wanted to get to an intermediate level. But after a month, lost all motivation to continue because it wasn't fun anymore and my progress was slow. In December last year, I decided to give the TTMIK website a try and I absolutely love it! The lessons are short, to the point, and provide many example sentences. Doing one lesson a day is not difficult at all and I am almost halfway through level 2! My biggest goal for this year is to just stay consistent, even if that means doing only one or two lessons per week.
Happy New Year!
I seem to have lost my passion for Korean music/media that drove me to study the Korean language so I don't feel motivated anymore. :( I still like all of it but it's not that important to me anymore. Still, I don't want my years of (slow but steady) learning go to waste and just forget all of it. So I try to stick with it and study on a regular basis but it's just SO hard. I used to study Korean vocabulary all the time in any tiny break during my daily life and it was fun but now it just feels like a hassle. I honestly don't know how to get my motivation back. :s At least TTMIK material is fun so that's one thing that helps. Still, I'm struggling to not lose my current skill rather than even thinking about progressing :(
My cousin actually changed her language settings to Korean on her ipod years ago. (You can tell how old I am lol) I didn't know Korean at the time as I was studying Japanese but I would just guess where everything was when I would borrow her ipod. My cousin took immersion to another level before it was a thing 😂
P.S. I love your content TTMIK team! Always simple and to the point. Thank you for all that you do. 화이팅!
i started studying korean in 2019 and somehow lose my motivations and quit learning everytime i thought i wanna learn it and seriously i needed this video thank you
감사합니다
How ironic that I just wrote down my learning goals for this year. Thanks for the tips.
My goal this year is to study at least 1-2 hours 5 days a week and see how far that takes me! 🥰
