Learn Korean with KoreanClass101.com! You could just kick yourself; you just failed to meet the time you wanted for the Korean road race you’ve been training for all year. Your friend meets you at the finish and tells you in Korean, “You had a good race, didn’t you?” You respond in Korean, “Are we talking about the same race? I finished well short of my goal!” Your friend replies in Korean, “Well, you could look at it that way, or you could change your viewpoint.” Your friend continues in Korean, “Instead, look at it as a new goal for next year. It’s instant motivation.” You answer in Korean, “I guess so, but I’m still disappointed. It was a goal of mine.” Your friend reminds you in Korean, “But there are plenty of races next year!” You say in Korean, “I suppose…but I need to start training right away!” Your friend tells you in Korean, “Maybe you should take a little break and celebrate the end of this one first. There’s pizza over there!”

Learn Korean with KoreanClass101.com! On your last day in the office, you’re saying good-bye to your Korean colleagues and wishing them well. You tell them in Korean, “I’ve loved being here, and I’ve learned so much from all of you. Thanks for helping me improve my Korean too! I hope to see you again soon in my office in the United States. Good-bye!” Or at least, you think you tell them “good-bye” in Korean. In fact, one of your colleagues leans over and whispers to you in Korean, “Excuse me, but instead of saying ‘farewell,’ you just said ‘hello.’” You whisper back in Korean, “Really? I meant to say the Korean word for ‘good-bye.’ What is the right Korean word for ‘good-bye?’” Your colleague responds in Korean, “You did use the right word, but you said it with the wrong intonation. Say it like this…” and pronounces the word properly in Korean for you to mimic. You repeat your “good-bye” to everyone and add in Korean, “See…I’m still learning more from you even as I’m leaving!”
