This course is very very good to us especially for the students of Myanmar during Military Coup. We all must do self study because the government can't control the situation. So thank you very much.

Hay algunas cosas que me gustaría que se explicaran mejor, como las partículas y en que caso se usan. Fuera de eso creo que es un curso básico donde aprendes muy bien y con una maestra nativa donde escuchas claramente como se pronuncian las palabras. Muchas gracias.

This course is great for those who want to have the basic understand of Korean as well as the basic sentence formation.

For people who want to learn Korean, this is a good start.

I would suggest first to get to know the alphabet (really memorize and get to know them).

I enjoyed practicing my basic Korean so much. It is easy to learn, easy to understand and there is a lot of very useful vocabulary. However, it would be great if it had more time to be developed, precisely due to the amount of vocabulary that is necessary to learn.

I learned the basics of the language. The contexts, grammar, and proper pronunciation has helped me a lot to understand more of what I am learning. It's not just the language that you get to understand but it also provides you with a glimpse of the Korean culture.

The course was basic and nicely paced for beginners - as it gets more complicated at Week 5, but still manageable if you practice your Hangul reading. Overall it was easy to pick up and I am glad I can catch basic phrases and understand basic grammar in the course

The whole module was very helpful for me to get a hook of Korean language. Also our professor taught very well that I understood everything. I hope Yonsei university teachers can develop more Korean courses to help us become just like a native speaker. Thank you.

I'm so glad I took this course. My interest in the Korean language started when I came back to listen to K-pop and It grew up on me. I fell in love with the language. This course has given me the basic skills to talk in basic conversations in Korean very easily.

Fue fantástico, siempre he querido aprender coreano pero dada la dificultad para los maestros coreanos perfeccionar el español era dificil comprender algunos contextos, pero haberlo aprendido del ingles al coreano fue mucho mas facil, pude entender muchas cosas.

Very informative and helpful. Though I am a little concern for those who will take it with zero knowledge as it may be too confusing for them. Nevertheless, they could use the forum to interact with the lecturer and other students to ask and clarify the lessons.
