Recommended Korean articles/books for each level

I’ve been receiving quite a lot of emails/comments etc asking if I can recommend Korean articles/books to read for their respective levels.  I know a lot of learners are relying on Korean textbooks as their main reading practice and wondering when they are “ready” to step out of that comfort zone to read “real materials”.

Starting on a new Korean novel

Wasn’t planning to blog today but I need a break from my thoughts. Wanted to read something in Korean but wasn’t feeling in the mood for 전우치 and definitely not in the mood for history. So decided to pick this teen novel that I bought some time back. The story is set in the time

I FINISHED A KOREAN NOVEL!!

OMG I’M SO HAPPY NOW. Okay, to backtrack a little. I didn’t exactly finish the whole novel, seeing how it’s THREE BOOKS. But I’ve finished the entire book 1 (350 pages), and it’s about the length of a full novel too. And it’s not just any modern novel. It’s a historical novel, or history-based fiction

하루에 한번쯤은 여유있는 시간을 가져야 돼!

맞는 말일세. Sorry for the sageuk speak, I’m addicted. Those who have been reading this blog will know that I’m totally, absolutely, in love with the Korean novel 전우치. Might not fit everyone’s tastes, but it does fit mine to a T. Reading this novel makes me really really happy that I am learning Korean. It opened

[Korean Novel] 전우치 (Jeon Woo Chi)

People who know me well will know that my all time favorite Korean movie is Oldboy, but my most rewatched movie is the 2009 전우치 Jeon Woochi / The Taoist Wizard. During my latest gmarket haul, I was just randomly searching 전우치, in hope of a movie novel or somethinggg. There wasn’t a movie novel, but I

Gmarket Korean Books Haul

Gmarket-ed again! It’s been such a looooong while since I bought anything, and I must first point out that not everything is for myself. I repeat: NOT. Although I admit that I went a little crazy with the books, since my bookshelf looks so empty right now. As usual, fast and efficient service. Ordered it

Korean Novels (:

안녕하세요 여러분! 요즘 한국 드라마를 보면서 한국어를 공부하는 중이에요. 그래서 블로그에 자주 방문하지 못 해요. 그리고 네이버에서 영어 카페를 운영하고 있어서 시간 별로 없어요. 일주일 전에 싱가폴의 sol mart에서 새로운 한국 소설 2권을 샀어요. 한나는 빅뱅의 <세상에 너를 소리쳐>. 그리고 다른 소설은 아주 유명한 <오두막>이에요. 저는 애초부터 빅뱅의 노래를 많이 좋아해요. 그런데 노래만 듣고 멘버에 대해 한나도
