Language today: Korean... should I learn this language?

First, it has been a while since I actually post anything different than my weekly update. Today, we get to talk about a language.

Korean is a lot different than most languages... especially all of Asian languages.

There's a whole history behind how Korean became known... North and South Korea both share the same language while both uses different methods of learning the language.

I'm not going to go into details about the history but instead... I will share two wikipedia pages about Korean Language.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_language
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Korean

There are different sites that teaches Korean... as well as books... you can search the books on your own but I will share the different places where you can learn the language yourself online.

https://www.duolingo.com/course/ko/en/Learn-Korean
This site is really popular... you can learn the basics in 5 minutes. But really, this is just a simple way. You can try it out yourself and see how you would like it.

You really don't learn the language here but it does teaches you a bit how the writing system works in this language. Something you should check out yourself when you get a chance.

They are the same company. While the website has more detail courses that you have to pay. And the YouTube channel gives you lessons. I don't think it has all of them but it's still good to go through and check it out.

Again, the channel above... it gives you bits and stuff about the language... they have a website where you have to pay to learn more. I won't share the site because it's right there on the page. Again, if you like to check out, you can go there.

https://www.coursera.org/learn/learn-korean
This is actually free... with the option of paying for a certification for completing the language course. Oh... and it's actually starting today so if you are interested... go right over there while you can.

There are many books and other ways to learn this language... you can watch K-drama or listen to K-pop... but whatever way you wish to learn... just know there's many options out there.

Now... let's talk about why I am interested in learning this language... writing stories and more... can always include languages of all kinds... you can travel just about anywhere. So it's always good idea to learn something new if you're writing about something you have a passion about.

So to my answer to the title of this blog... yes... I should learn this language... especially since I am into K-pop and K-drama a lot lately.

What about you? Are you interested in learning Korean? If so... go on those sites to learn more... or even search more about it yourself!
