Learn Korean with KPop #1 BTOB 2nd Confession {Hangul+Romanization+English}


안녕하세요! (Ann-yeong-ha-se-yo!) lovely KPopsters and Korean learners.

If this is your first time on my Blog then  어서오십시오 (eo-seo-o-sib-si-o) :)

I have been slacking off from my langaugae study because of uni work and a busy life, so as a form of motivation, I decided to find a fun and interactive way to learn. I bring to you my series of learn korean with kpop lyrics. What better way to study, learn new words, understand lyrics and not to mention it is a good way to memorise as well. 

The first song in this series is my current favourite KPop song which is  

2nd Confession (두 번째 고백 ~ du-beon-jjae-go-baek) by BTOB
written by and composed by Seo Yong-bae and Seo Jae-woo.

오늘은 굉장히 중요한 날입니다
한 여자에게 두번째 고백을 하는 날이거든요

A trip to Portobello Road Market and Notting Hill.



On a cold rainy Saturday in march of last year, I decided to visit the famous Portobello Market. Why I chose a day like that is beyond me, all I can say is maybe my subconscious was trying to cheer me up because I was going through alot at the time. 

I am a lover of vintage stuff, and I love the thrill of finding unique trinkets with a lot of history, so you can imagine my excitement. Also, I had always wanted to visit Notting Hill since watching the movie of the same title starring Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts.

Here are a few pictures I took with my phone which surprisingly turned out good. The weather wasn't the best though but the pictures were okay.

The Great Madiba - Omkhulu Madiba






O Madiba, the fervent Rolihlahla
you opened the doors
of freedom and equality
in uMzantsi Afrika.
Dearly referred to as Tata,
you are a father to us all

Aaah! Dalibhunga
Indeed you are convener of the dialogue
You brought us all together
and taught us a language,
of love and hope

O Madiba, the pride of Africa
your words shall be a guiding light for all of eternity
We shall sing your praises to the next generation
and the next, passing on your torch of inspiration
Khulu Mandela, Ndiyabulela.


Koreatown London (New Malden)

Hey guys, I hope ya'll are doing great. I have been very stressed recently because of mid-terms, so last weekend I went out with some friends to relieve my stress. We went to Koreatown in New Malden for some food and korean style karaoke. I took a bit of footage and thought to share it with you guys. Hope you like it.




Korean Vlog (KLOG) #1


In this video, I tried using long sentences to talk. It was pretty challenging to pronounce the words and sound natural at the same time. Please leave me comments if you have tips on the most efficient method to sound natural in korean. If there are any language learners here, let us learn together.





안녕 :)

Two sister's Self Introduction in Korean and Japanese.



As you all know I am self-studying Korean. Well, my sister is taking a course in Japanese as part of her school curriculum. She came to visit for a few days and we decided to do a video (more like I begged her) introducing ourselves in Korean and Japanese. Check it out below.


My experience so far with Korean Food (한국 음식) in London, A Review


I started getting interested in the Korean culture at the beginning of the year. It all stemmed from my love for Korean Drama which led to my goal to master the language. Although I always thought Korean food looked good on T.V and i wanted to taste it, it never occurred to me to search for restaurants around London until a few months back. I was talking about KDramas with one of my friends and she told me that she loved Korean food and I was like we should go to a Korean restaurant sometime. That was how my Journey to this oriental cuisine started. First stop is Assa.

  Assa


See my friend is from Singapore and like me she has never checked to see if there were Korean restaurants around. So we used trip advisor to look for the nearest restaurant from Piccadilly Circus station and we found Assa. It wasn't a very long walk for us and when we found it this is what the entrance looked like.
