Learn the meaning of "손을 잡다"

Today we'll learn about a brand new Korean idiom - "손을 잡다"

Taking a quick look at it, we've got 손, which means "hand," and 잡다 which means "grab" or "hold."

But of course, since this is an idiom, it's not going to simply mean "to hold hands," is it?

Check out the video episode right here.

Korean Phrases Ep. 25: "손을 잡다"

Brand new series! GO! Billy Q&A Ep. 1

안녕하세요 to everyone. So I'd been thinking of a new series I could add to the regular current two - "Learn Korean" and "Korean Phrases" - and have decided on a Q&A series where I answer your questions. Specifically, I'd like to answer your questions that might not be big enough to make a full video about, but that are still important. Feel free to ask anything you'd like, Korean-related or not. For more difficult or complex questions (such as explaining main grammar concepts) I'll still be making regular videos as usual. And if you enjoy this new series, you can expect to see one episode from it each month.

This week I answer three questions that came to me through Twitter. Learn about the mysterious origins of Keykat, find out what I think about kimchi, and learn about a couple of important Korean name endings, all in this week's brand new episode!

GO! Billy Q&A Ep. 1

Also, if you don't already know, my new book "Korean Made Simple: A beginner's guide to learning the Korean language" is available! If you want to get started learning Korean for the first time, or if you're looking for a good refresher course or a review on Korean basics, then this is the book for you.

You can check the book out  here , or find it directly through  Amazon  and most online retailers.
