TXT ("TOMORROW X TOGETHER") is a Korean group formed in 2019 by Big Hit Music and consists of five members. I share my analysis on each member, including how they speak overall, any unique things to notice about their Korean, as well as their writing, dialect usage, and personality.

Tongin Market is an outdoor marketplace in Seoul that's kind of like a pay-as-you-go buffet, where you choose only what you want from several of the vendors in a long alleyway. One thing that makes this place unique is that you can also pay using traditional coins, called 엽전, which makes the experience more memorable and fun. I went there together with my son and we ate until we were full, and then ate some more. (This video is not sponsored.)
The Plain Form has many uses ranging from grammar forms (such as quoting statements), to writing (such as in test example sentences), and to speaking (such as to friends, or to yourself). In Sunday's most recent live stream I taught how to conjugate the Plain Form, as well as when and how to use the Plain Form. Here's the summarized version.
This is an aspect of Korean culture I had to learn over time, but Koreans typically don't initiate small talk (or appreciate it) the same way that we do in the US and in many other countries. However, there are many situations where you can do it, and even when they'd appreciate it, but you'll have to learn those before attempting them in order to avoid making others uncomfortable.
I met with Gillian 쌤 and we discussed how to do small talk in Korea, and when to avoid it completely in today's newest "A Glass with Billy" episode.
During the most recent live classroom I taught about more time-related words, including 자주, 잘, 방금 & 금방, (지금) 당장, 가끔(씩), 종종, (때)때로, 즉시 & 즉각 (and more). These words are all related to talking about the time in Korean.
My live stream topics are suggested by channel members and Patreon supporters, so if you'd like to suggest a future live class make sure to let me know~!
Keykat says she suddenly wants to change her hair style, but I don't know why. Oh well....
I wanted to make a lesson about ~군, and this video covers 군(요), 구나, 구먼, and 구만 - all of the most common ones. Also the PDF version (below) covers additional ones including ~더군 and more.
Also make sure to get your free PDF version of this lesson (and every lesson in the "Learn Korean" series) by clicking the download link right below this video~!
Over the years I've heard of people learning multiple languages at once, including Korean. While there are some downsides, this is more common than you may think. For example, there are thousands of people who are learning Korean every day through English, but whose native language is not English. In these cases, what should you know before trying this? Are there any major downsides to be aware of? Are there any benefits? I met with Hyunwoo and we discussed our experiences learning multiple languages, and what we'd recommend to others who are in this situation.
To say "to think" requires knowing the Plain Form, and using it together with ~고 and the verb 생각하다. This form is different than using the 것 같다 form we learned previously, which also means "to think." In this lesson I summarize when and where to use both forms.
Recently my 7 year old son and I visited the Korean Folk Village, known as 한국민속촌, which is located near Suwon in Korea. This time we took a tour around the village and spoke together in Korean, and show you what it's like if you visit there. (This was not a sponsored video.)
