Make sure you don’t offend anyone, and use the correct politeness levels when you speak Korean! In this Beginner Korean lesson we’ll learn about Korean politeness levels as we learn Korean. If you work in Korea, there are many different levels of politeness that should be used in a Korean office. We’ll be listening to an employee talking to his coworker, section chief, department chief, and even the boss! So be sure to listen in and make sure you’re not being rude! After listening, remember to stop by KoreanClass101.com and leave us a post!
