Appendix/Listening Passage 241

Aha! Korean is a Korean language textbook series developed by Sookmyung Women's University. It aims to improve Korean expression and comprehension skills in adult learners.
Aha! Korean is comprised of five main textbooks, five supplementary textbooks, a CD to support listening and speaking skills, a vocabulary list of vocabulary introduced in each text, and a teacher's guide, beginning with the "Hangeul" (Korean alphabet) acquisition textbook, the most fundamental step in Korean language education.


The main textbook is organized into units centered on topics, and each dialogue presents situations and functions that can be easily encountered in real life.
The text is structured to allow for practice of sentence patterns in a variety of ways, and supplementary teaching materials are provided to enable learners to check and review the sentence patterns and vocabulary they have learned on their own.
We have made every effort to ensure the efficiency of the layout so that you can quickly and easily check the meaning of newly introduced vocabulary in each unit.


Additionally, a teacher's guide was created to help teachers use this textbook more systematically, including detailed information on Korean pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, and teaching methods.
Above all, the unique feature of this textbook is that it incorporates effective teaching methods based on language teaching theory throughout the content, making it easy to understand and acquire Korean.
This textbook was developed through the collaborative efforts of a team of professional Korean language teachers with extensive experience teaching Korean to international students and a research team with expertise in Korean linguistics and language teaching theory.
