Learn Korean as it's actually spoken today in Seoul!

Korean is one of the fastest-growing second languages in the world, thanks to the huge popularity of K-pop music, Korean food, and K-dramas. Hello Korean Volume 2 picks up where the first volume ends and is designed for people who want to learn to speak Korean quickly and correctlyβ€”especially K-Pop and K-Drama fans!

It includes colourful drawings and a cast of young friendsβ€”Koreans and foreignersβ€”who live in Seoul, hang out together, and have fun exploring the city. It also features Korean film and TV star Lee Joon-gi, who not only reads the dialogues but contributes a series of stories about his favourite places and things to do in Seoul!

Each chapter is organised as follows:

  • An opening dialogue on an everyday topic such as going out or describing a friend
  • A list of useful vocabulary and everyday expressions
  • Grammar explanations, conversations, and practice exercises
  • 'Talking with Lee Joon-gi': Respond to the prompts as though you are speaking to him!
  • 'Lee Joon-gi's Top Travel Sites' describing the actor's favourite places in Korea!

This book is designed by two leading Korean language teachersβ€”Jiyoung Park and Soyoung Yooβ€”and can be used as a classroom text or for self-study.
