It will be A GREAT FUN to try to read at least several words while they are in Korea otherwise surrounded by strange scripts and symbols.

This book contains the essence of the author's 30 years of experience in teaching Korean. It is aimed at foreigners who have just arrived in Korea or who do not know Korean at all, and allows them to learn basic Korean in an interesting and serious way in a very short period of time, such as one morning.
It provides a brief explanation of the origin of Hangul (illustrated with pictures of King Sejong and the principles of the creation of heaven, earth, and man) and helps readers understand consonants and vowels with phonetic illustrations and commentary. In addition, a writing corner allows readers to write consonants and vowels directly in the book.
Additionally, it is easy to understand how Hangul is used in real life through photos of various streets, markets, and signboards.
