I’m learning Korean and I bet you’re interested or learning it too. Learning a new language isn’t easy, and it can get quite pricey. So I’ve compiled a list of FREE resources just for you! Good luck on learning Korean!

Websites:

Course type sites:

SNU Click Me

This is my favorite course type website even though I’ve only done two lessons. I’m more of a textbook type person, but I really love this website.

Sogang

Many people like this course or recommend it. I’ve never used it, but there are many good lessons you can use for practicing and learning new words.

KBS Learn Korean

There are two parts. One for beginners and the other for more advanced learners. However, this is more geared towards people traveling to Korea. This is still a great website to use for learning vocabulary.

The course can be viewed in different languages not just English!

Pathway to Korean

They have many units and lessons, I haven’t used it, but I checked it out. Let me know what you think of it!

Berkeley Language: Korean 10

For more advanced/intermediate speakers.

 Practice & Reading Sites:

Tip: After learning Korean it is important to read everything! Even if you don’t understand it is good to practice reading and getting used to talking in Korean. Did that make sense?

Indiana Hangul - Has easy vocabulary for each character in the Hangul alphabet

Great for beginners to practice reading! I love this site!

Fresh Korean - worksheets for practicing reading and writing

English Play - Great website to practice reading and learning new vocabulary since their posts are translated in both English and Korean.

Tip: You will have to turn off adblocker to view the posts

The Korean Thoughts - Has a few posts for practicing reading/writing.

KLEC: Pictorials - Good for practicing!

Korean Comics 

I love this website. It is so cute and great for beginners. There is even a vocabulary page for the words you might have not known that were mentioned in the comics.

Digital Dialects

If you’re more of a game type of person or just want a fun break from word filled pages, check out this website!

Blog

A blog from another self studying learner who also has many resources linked too!

Naver

Naver is basically the Korean Google. I love it so much, it is way better than google. It is great to practice Korean. I can’t wait ‘till I’m fluent in Korean, so I can actually use my Naver account that is SO pretty.

They also have apps!

Naver Jr 

This site is my bestfriend. They have books, games, everything. I love it.

Free Online Textbooks:

Tip: You don’t have to print out the whole textbook, but for the worksheet pages I recommend printing out just those pages (or any other pages you want), so you can actually fill in the problems and visually see the answers, not just in your head.

Tip: If you go on google books and search and (text)book you’re interested in it will show MANY pages as a preview which you can use those pages for examples/practice!

Korean From Zero

This is my FAVORITE resource! I use this for pretty much all my lessons. This textbook is also like a workbook they have many practice problems! They also have a website with the same lessons that are included in the textbook and audio files for pronunciation. 

KLEC Textbooks

They have two textbooks. I like these textbooks because it isn’t so serious and filled with boring text. There are cute comics in each lesson, which is great for practicing reading.

Korean Seoul National University Textbook

This is more of a workbook to me which I love. I’d rather fill out a lot of worksheets than read all day! It is slightly older, but it is still amazing!

Links to textbooks

Apps:

Memrise

This is the app I used to learn Hangul! (It is also a website)

Eggbun

Oh I like this app so much, it’s so cute. They give you a few lessons from each chapter, but the rest of the lessons you have to pay from. I recommend this site for beginners who already know Hangul. But check this app out. I love it so much!

Tip: On the front/home page you can see there are flashcards for each lesson. The flashcards include ALL the words that were learned during the lesson. It just won’t have a detailed explanation like the lesson did. But if you’re cheap like me and really like this app, make sure to check out the home page section.

Webtoons

This is great for reading in an enjoyable way! They also have a full English version, where the webtoons are translated.

Tip: Just look up webtoons on the internet and there will be so many sites to practice reading in a fun way!

Pororo

Pororo Flashcards! Sorry I’m still a child.

6000 Words

I live by this app! The cover is very unappealing, but the app is amazing. (The actually content in the app isn’t as unappealing) I really love this app because you can choose which words you want to learn and how you want to learn!

Korean Princess

I don’t know why I haven’t heard of this app before! It is amazing. This app is mostly for those learning Hangul, but it also has vocabulary words!

They also have a Japanese version for those interested in learning Japanese!!

Captain Korean

This is by the same company as Korean Princess, but it is for those who already know Hangul and I love it so much!

Naver Dictionary

You never know when this will come in handy! It also serves as a translator.

Look up 동화 for children’s Korean books

Videos:

Sweet and Tasty TV

I love her videos and she is the only Youtuber I watch for Korean videos. (I’m not much of a video learner type of person.)

Learn 50 Vocab words in a day

I really like using this method to study new words.

Tips for learning Korean

This video was REALLY helpful

Tips:

Use a notebook for all your notes and vocabulary, so you can refer back to them later and have it all in one place.

I like to have loose papers to use for practice and I store them in a folder.

LEARN HANGUL FIRST! (It is actually pretty easy to learn)

Try to have a studying schedule. I have a lot of free time so I study every other day.

Make flashcards. Online and/or offline. If you do offline flashcards keep them together in a ring, and then when you for sure know the word you can through that word away.
