It's amazing how 100 key words and phrases provide instant communication! Do you want to speak simple Korean but are too busy to study it? Are you visiting Korea for a short time and need a Korean phrasebook to help you communicate? If so, this Korean phrasebook is for you.

Its tiny 0.4 x 4.1 x 5.9 inches size makes it incredibly convenient to travel with, yet it retains the most essential content for communication. This new, expanded edition contains 15% more content, fun manga-style illustrations, and additional information on which destinations, personalities, and trends are popular in Korea right now!

The idea of Instant Korean is simple—learn 100 words and phrases and say 1,000 things. The trick is knowing which 100 words to learn, but the author Boye Lafayette De Mente has solved this problem by choosing only those words you'll hear again and again.
