Make sure you’re not being rude when you’re talking on the phone in Korea! In this lesson we’ll be talking about getting phone calls when you’re at work or in class. Korean phone culture can be different than what you’re used to! In this lesson we’ll be taking a look at some Korean grammar, particularly -는 중이다 (-neun jungida), which lets you express that you’re in the middle of something. Remember to learn this Korean grammar as you learn Korean and Korean phone culture so you can tell your friends what you’re doing! After listening, remember to stop by KoreanClass101.com and leave us a post!

매 주에는 이 3 명들이 왜 얼마나 더우는지 complain 해요? 녹음 스튜디오에 air con 없어요? Keith 하고 윤설한테서 그런 같은 complaint 못 듣는 데… 
농담 중이에요….

하하하하 Marcus! Good point!
미현 always starts first!!
(미현 씨가 항상 먼저 불평(complain)해요 ㅎㅎㅎ)
그리고 녹음할 때 에어컨 쓰면, 잡음(noise)이 많이 생기겠죠? ^^
