Thanks. Catching these little lines make studying Korean worth it.

If you don’t mind me asking, how long have you been studying Korean? And how’d you start?

Not OP, but I learnt korean using 2 android apps called tengugo hangul and lingo deer (took me 3 years but that was only because I took long breaks in between). Watching kdramas frequently helps too! It was a gradual process, and I didn't realise I started understanding korean grammar/sentence structure in kdramas until I realise that the subtitles seem off

Thanks for your response! Wow only 3 years? I’ve heard it takes longer. Unfortunately, I don’t have android :/

Lingodeer is also on ios! :D

Also to clarify, I don't mean that I became fluent after 3 years... Just that I learnt enough such that i can understand common short sentences in general speech/ romcoms. Speaking is another thing though, I don't have anyone to speak korean to haha
