Let’s Talk About: Review!

안녕하세요! We are back with another review! But this time I decided to make a printout sheet so we all can practice writing in 한글 as well! I know that is a slightly big thing for me because I want to be able to practice it. Also, this should help those who learn by "doing" …

안녕하세요! Usually stuff like this gets separated (and I am so sorry about that). But this time, it has been on my mind so I wanted to make sure that I have these tips ready. They TRULY helped me a lot in regards to some of my pronunciation. Especially when it comes to those tricky …
