Cultural post #1

[Mary Lee]

Recently, I’ve been watching a lot more Korean YouTubers to help me in my Korean especially in casual conversation as they use more informal speech. I’ve been watching Pony who is a Korean makeup artist and 영국 남자(Korean Englishman) where Josh, an Englishman who speaks Korean, introduces Korean culture to his fellow friends and family in England. I’ve been using english subtitles to help me understand but have been trying to look at them less to see if I am able to understand what they are saying. Watching these YouTubers have helped me a lot in understanding what context to use certain phrases and words in a casual conversation as well as my pronunciation as I practice saying certain phrases out loud. It has been easier to learn Korean through these channels as I’m more engaged with the content.
