About the Book
The fun and easy way to start speaking Korean
There are 42 million native Korean speakers, including more than 1 million in the U.S., and knowledge of Korean is increasingly in demand due to South Korea's growing economic influence and North Korea's continuing international security issues. This fun and easy guide helps people pick up basic skills in this challenging language. Complete with a CD featuring sample dialogues in MP3 format, it covers grammar, numbers, greetings and introductions, small talk, phone conversations, eating and drinking, money, transportation, directions, shopping, recreation, and emergencies.
Jungwook Hong (Charlottesville, VA) created a Korean language program and taught beginning-level Korean at the University of Virginia, where he also helped found the Korean Studies Organization. He has worked as an interpreter at international business conferences. [Edit review] [Delete review]

Korean script is referred to as Hangul. Hanja is the Korean term for Chinese characters. I agree it is an odd omission from the book though.  [Delete review]
Helpful, but lacking by Brian Schellenberg (United States), 12 March 2009 01:06
This book is very helpful for a beginner learning Korean. It does, however, leave out one very important part of the Korean language: the Korean alphabet. At no point in the book is Hanja ever discussed. Yes, this book will help you order food, but it will not teach how to read the menu.  [Delete review]
