Billy Go’s Beginner Korean Course | #79: Formal Korean

We've covered a lot of various politeness levels and how to use them, and we're ready for one more useful form - Formal Speech.

Formal speech is less commonly used than the others we've learned already (such as the 요 form), but it's still important to know and is still useful in the right situations. This lesson will teach how and when to use it.

And this series will have 100 episodes when it's completed, so we're almost near the finish line. Remember to start from the beginning though if this is your first time seeing a video in this series, as you might miss something important by skipping ahead.

Grading Stray Kids’ Korean | Felix & Bang Chan

Ever wondered how some of your favorite non-native celebrities speak Korean? Wanted to know what things they did well, and what things they could improve, from a Korean teacher's perspective?

Today I'll grade Felix and Bang Chan from the popular K-pop group "Stray Kids."

This is the fifth episode of this series. I'll keep making them for the time being, but only perhaps once a month. They do take a really long time to make (each is over a week at least), and the newest one I'm making has been well over 10 days already. But as long as people continue to really like them and make requests for them, I'll keep making them every once in a while.
