Very detailed and easy to follow course! Perfect for beginners. I wish you would add more details on how to change the verb and 'yo'. And may you have Second Step Korean course? That would be awesome! Komabsubnita

Very helpful course for beginners. Acquiring pronunciation skills may take time, but I can definitely say that I can identify Hangul characters and can read the words formed. Thank you Professor Kang and Coursera!

This class is definitely more than I expected. Especially the first a few weeks when explaining the origin of Korean language, it really helps me to better understand the meaning and the construction of the words.

I actually enjoyed this class very much. The only drawback for me was that it was a little too quick for someone who is trying to learn another language for the first time, so I had to keep pausing and rewinding.

A curiously addictive set of lessons. They do require stopping the video once every 5 seconds to take notes, and I found myself needing to rewind frequently too. But I learned an enormous amount in the process.
