How should I study Korean?

Date:

How should I study Korean? There are many international students in Korean universities, right? One of the most difficult parts of foreign students studying in Korea is studying Korean. Today is a tip for studying Korean for students studying abroad in Korea!

First, the most important thing when learning Korean is consistency. Study Korean at least a little bit every day while continuing to study. Even for a short time, steady learning improves memory and can acquire words and expressions. The recommended way here is to watch only one Korean study video a day on YouTube! You can study just by watching videos in Korean!

Second, one of the most effective ways to learn a foreign language is with a language partner. Practice conversation with a friend, professor, or colleague who speaks Korean. Through this, you can not only get used to talking in Korean, but also learn new expressions naturally. Look for language exchange friends on Hello Talk or Everytime, there will be more people looking for you than you think!

Third, actively participate in Korean classes. In addition to Korean language classes provided by universities, actively participate in Korean language culture experience events held by schools. Through this, you can increase your interest in learning Korean and improve your understanding of Korean culture For example, Yeoreum participated in various activities as soon as she entered the school. As a result, I was able to write well in Korean.

Lastly, the most important thing is! Enjoy studying. If you overdo your learning, your efficiency may decrease. If you enjoy learning Korean through Korean dramas, music, and movies, you can learn efficiently.

Have you ever heard of the word "four major insurances"?If you've watched news and TV a lot while living in Korea, you've probably heard it at least once. But what's the big four insurance policies? Does it matter to foreigners?I'll tell you more about the four major insurances today. What are the four major insurances? Korea's four major insurances refer to all four insurances directly managed by the government to ensure a stable economic life for the people from social risks. In Korea, people with income, companies, and institutions are required to pay four major insurances! It's a mandatory subscription insurance that all workers must sign up for, regardless of whether they are interns, non-regular workers, or regular workers!Foreigners also have to pay four major insurances if they work for a Korean company! When you look at job postings on recruitment sites, there are often the same conditions as "four major insurances included." Some companies offer four major insurances instead, or some companies have such conditions, such as 50%. What are the four major insurances? The four major insurances include national pension, national health insurance, employment insurance, and industrial accident compensation insurance. In the case of international students, if they live in Korea for more than six months, they are obligated to pay national health insurance every month. If you get a job in Korea, you have to pay the national pension, employment insurance, and industrial accident compensation insurance in addition to the national health insurance. Then what kind of benefits do you think each insurance provides? The four major insurances don't usually get any benefits right away, but they can get benefits depending on the conditions of the insurance the national pension The National Pension Service pays 4.5% of its monthly salary as an insurance premium almost every year. The national pension, which is later paid for retirement, is a system created in preparation for not being able to work if a worker retires after a certain age. In other words, when you retire later, you have the amount you can get every month, and that amount will be returned to the National Pension Service we paid for! employment insurance It is a system created for...
