Review: great (as all living language courses) - this is the 3rd living language course I've ordered- I speak Spanish fluently and ordered the Spanish version for my parents. I was really pleased with it, so I recommend it to everyone. I ordered the French version for myself and have been super pleased with it also- I have learned a lot, even just using the course on my own. so I thought I would give the Korean version a shot since that language really interests me a lot. I saw it was coming out and preordered it. got it as soon as it was released- arrived quickly. the price was great as always for such an extensive course. I could not be happier!!! the extra book on learning to read and write hangul is something most other courses don't give you- I finished it failry quickly and have been amazed at how quickly ive learned to "read" hangul. I watch a lot of Korean tv shows (with English subtitles) but I have surprised myself now because I can now read the Korean subtitles that come up (I don't understand the meanings of the words yet but I am able to read the Korean with correct pronunciation) I think it gives you a really good basis- like a child learning to read, learning to write, sounds words out, etc. I have now moved on to the first lesson book and am learning quickly. perfect for the price- the series are always in depth, yet simple to understand. very happy and would recommend this to others. p.s. im an ESAL teacher so have experience with language teaching and find the living language method very good. it really works for me, as im a visual person and the reading and writing is what allows the language to "sink in" for me. the cds are also great too and are good for people who learn better by listening.
Review: The clarity of the grammar explanations. - I purchased the first volume of this set at a used book sale and was so struck by the clarity of the grammar explanations that I determined to buy the set even though I had already purchased an integrated set my granddaughter is using in college along with several handbooks and readers. Living Language Korean offers answers to exercises, eminently helpful in self-study. Although I've gained some ability in several languages, this is my first non-Indo-European language and it is quite an adventure. My only question is why include a notebook when it only adds weight to the package and there is not even a suggestion as to how to use the notebook? OK. Let me put an addendum here.... and a warning to people reviewing a book before they have fully read it. I stand by my rating. However, the issue I did not expect to encounter was access to the vocabulary: vocabulary is presented in context - which sounds good - but, without some sort of list like say a glossary with each chapter or a glossary at the end of the book, I was often left searching one of the outstanding features of the series: answers to the exercises. So I would search the exercises for an unknown word, then go to the answers to find the Korean equivalent. Cumbersome, to say the least. It was so hard, requiring so much searching, that I wound up learning quite a bit and I began to wonder if maybe there was a method to her madness. Anyway, all the other positives I mentioned earlier still hold.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Initial Reaction
*by A***N on December 29, 2014*

I had JUST received my package about an hour ago and I looked and skimmed through all of the books. I have yet to listen to the audio CDs though . The way the packaging is is very beautiful . It's one of the things that sort of brought my attention to the product. As you may have read or seen from other reviews , it comes with 3 lesson books (beginner to intermediate), and audio CD folder with 9 CD's (three for each book), a reading and writing book , and a notebook to take notes in of course . I bought my set from a bookstore for a cheaper price , so I was expecting much lower quality as if it were used . But its a brand new set and I'm a happy customer I must say . I've read a few reviews about spelling errors and wrong answers in the answer keys, but I believe that if you atleast know how to say something , you can make progress rather than just dwelling on typos and wrong answers . Also, I would take advantage of the online resources they have on their site. Practice makes perfect . And finally, if you're buying this and just starting out learning Korean, do not rely on this program to make you fluent. You'll need to buy a couple books and/or use all of the free resources you can online and whatnot . I believe this program has the ability to get a person to understanding a good enough chunk of the language to where you can make conversation and understand the language , but I don't think this can get you to a fluent or near fluent level. Overall though, I am happy so far(
