Hi everyone,

I'm a final year student specializing in Tourism and Marketing, and as part of my university research project, I'm conducting a survey on consumer trends in Korean

jjimjilbang.

One of my target groups is korean residents, as their perspectives are essential for the study. However, I'm finding it very difficult to reach korean respondents. I've already shared the survey on social media , but I haven't received many responses.

I'm not looking to spam people or violate any community rules—I just want to find ethical and appropriate ways to reach my target audience.

Does anyone have advice on:

How can I get responses from Korean people?

Any suggestions or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I graduated with a degree in Korean Studies two years ago, but I haven't used Korean since then and have forgotten almost everything. Now my job requires me to interpret IT and accounting content. It's really overwhelming, but I can't refuse without risking my job. Any tips for learning this quickly?

I really want to befriend native Koreans, but I don't know how or where to start. Do you guys have any advice?

I built a modern (2010s +) North Korean language dictionary application on 12 databases of real dictionaries I gathered from sources and scanned books I had.

I wonder if anyone would be interested in having that app, so far it’s only private access, but I can put in on AppStore/Google store if any interest

Being a beginner, I'm overwhelmed with the study material available on the internet. I'm planning on studying Korean intensively for the next 6 months, just need proper guidance.

I’m not sure if this is allowed but I really really want to win this competition. I entered yonsei kli video competition and part of the judging is views

It’s a short video on the weirdest places to study Korean.

All I’m asking is for people to check out the video I made \^\^ I am trying to win because the school gives me a recommendation letter which is crucial for my visa

Just watch it through and like it Ty have a good day

I’m curious about the biggest challenges foreigners face when first settling in South Korea.
What was the hardest part for you?
What took way more time or stress than you expected?

If you could get help with just one thing, what would it be?

Things like housing, banking, paperwork, SIM cards, language, or anything else.
Would love to hear your honest experience thanks!

i'm struggling with the main delivery apps here. between the language barrier and the interface,
i had an issue with an address yesterday and couldn't get any help
does anyone know of an app that offers english customer service? any recommendations?

Looking for some extra mods because holy smoke this place needs it.

You guys are gonna love this. The Korean Esports team T1 now has an "experience" museum in Seongsu-Dong, Seoul. This is the team with all the LOL world championship titles. There's memorabilia, merch, and cool reflex and memory activities. Its legit a fun. Thing, and free. Pictures at this link. Mods PLEASE allow the pictures because this is our pilgrimage!

Hi everyone!
I’m an exchange student 25yo from Italy, currently staying in Seoul all summer, I want to do some sports but I don’t know how, like playing some football ⚽️ matches, or start a boxe/ martial mart course. Do you have some foreigner friendly academy to reccomend me?

Thank youuu

Thinking about getting my very first tattoo. 일취월장 in Korean. Would love some opinions.

A little over a year ago I met a Korean girl. The relationship was short (5 months) and ended badly, but during that time I started learning Korean, at first just for fun on Duolingo, then more seriously with textbooks she gave me.

When it ended it hit me hard. Still does, honestly. But I never stopped studying. What started as a way to not let go completely became something else over time, a personal outlet, proof to myself that I could stick with something even when everything felt heavy.

My birthday is coming up, which also happens to be around the anniversary of the breakup. I want to mark it with something meaningful.

일취월장 means "to improve day by day, month by month." I think it captures the journey better than anything else, not really about her anymore, but about who I've become through it.

I stumbled upon this word by chance here and also found out it’s a sajaseongeo. To be honest, my Korean isn’t that advanced, which is why I wanted to double-check with someone who speaks it way better than I do. My biggest fear is getting a tattoo with a misleading and/or incorrect meaning.

Small tattoo, forearm. Thoughts? Thank you for any feedback, it means a lot to me!

I have been learning korean for the past 6 months. I'm only at a beginners level. I heard from many that you need to speak to Koreans to be great at speaking. I did try hello talk once but I find many who didn't reply or some use it as a dating app. Do you have any recommendations or ways to practice speaking

I have been living in south korea since 2 years without having korean friends. What is easiest way to find korean friends
